An inquiry in progress
A city between storms.
How did water work up there?
We’re following rain across plazas, slopes, and drains—and asking how people made water last on a mountain.
A closer look is taking shape
Who we are
Making room for the questions.
Where did water for drinking and cooking come from? How did people move it through the city—and where could they keep it for later? We’re building an independent, evidence-led exploration of the ancient city’s water systems, one question at a time.
More is coming soon. For now, this page marks the inquiry as it grows.
