		Of these "Four Quarters," Antisuyu, located on the eastern rim of the Cuzco Basin, is the area where the Incan culture was truly based, including most important religious sites, such as Machu Picchu, as well as governmental posts (Moseley, 32).
		The final important crop in Antisuyu was maize, the only food considered worthy of offering to the Gods and a enduring cereal due to its ability to grow on poor soil (Metraux, 66).
		Although the Incas placed their greatest efforts on the development of the Antisuyu region, the other areas also each contributed uniquely to the livelihood and technology of the Incan empire.

	Quest for Paititi
		Explorer, Greg Deyermenjian and his Quechua-speaking native guides, Paulino and Alberto Mamani, "Goyo" Toledo and the film crew of Producer, Garrett Strang and Cinematographer, Erin Harvey slashed their way through thickets and underbrush for over two weeks to uncover a number of significant Inca ruins.
		For nearly two decades, Deyermenjian and his crew have shed new insight into Inca culture and unearthed archaeological sites that have added to the understanding of its legendary empire, known as Antisuyu or Paititi.
		Based on local word of mouth and the findings from the team's 1999 expedition, the explorers believe their recent discoveries could be directly related to the legend of Paititi, given their strategic location to the Road of Stone.

	Athena Review, 3,4: Mameria: Incan Site Complex in the Antisuyu of SE Peru
		Given that these remote areas of jungle-covered hills and mountains are so vast and so well-hidden and protected from the outside world by Pacha Mama, the Andean Earth Mother, the selva alta could indeed hide some things forever.
		And the existence of the unmapped camino de piedra that traverses the highlands with branches appearing to head toward Mameria, could also indicate that these ruins constitute some part of an interconnected Incan state within the Antisuyu, the still mysterious eastern quarter of the Incan empire.
		What is more certain is that Mameria was one of the regions that provided the essential and sacred coca to the Incan nobility, whose prerogative it was to chew.

		Known as Cuzco since the time of the invasion, the Inka capital of Qosqo was a magnificent city in the southern Peruvian highlands, referred to, amongst other names, as the "navel of the world." From this centre radiated roads leading to the four parts of the Empire: Chinchaysuyu, Kuntisuyu, Antisuyu and Qollasuyu.
		And the ceque system may be seen to exemplify radial patterning pointing to an important central location, the Qori Kancha, or Temple of the Sun.
		These divisions have topographic correlates, as Zuidema demonstrated that the northern part of hanan (upper) Qosqo includes the hills and upriver area of the valley, as well as the ways to Chinchaysuyu and Antisuyu; Sherbondy adds that the sources of water for the Huatanay River were also located in hanan Qosqo.

	The Cosmology of Tawantinsuyu
		The evidence from China throws even more light on the cosmology of Tawantinsuyu; but in order to be able to use this evidence properly, we must first say something about the political organization of the Inca kingdom.
		Tawantinsuyu means “the four quarters” of which the Inca empire consisted - Chinchasuyu to the North, Qollasuyu to the South, Antisuyu to the East and Kuntisuyu to the West.
		At the center of Tawantinsuyu was Cusco, the capital, with the Inca ruler and the Coricancha.
