He'āina kupaianahaʻo Chile , a he mea'ai'ē nā mea kūʻai a me nā mea hele. ʻO kēia'āina kupaianaha kaulana kaulana wale nō no ka mālama holoholona a me ka mālama'āina, nāʻawaʻawa hauʻoli a me nā hale kaulana kaulana o ka honua, akā he mau pūnaewele kūikawā maoli nō, kahi o kahi paʻa kaulana o Pukará de Quitor, ma ke kūkulu'ākau Chile. E noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ia ma keʻano kiko'ī.
He aha nā mea hoihoi e pili ana i ka pā kaua o Pucara de Quitor?
ʻO ka mea mua, he mea pono eʻikeʻoe i ka hale paʻahao o Pucara de Quitor heʻelua mau mile mai ke kūlanakauhale liʻiliʻi o San Pedro de Atacama a me kahi 50 kilomita mai ka palenaʻo Chile a me Bolivia. Aia ia ma luna o kahi puʻu, ma kaʻaoʻao hema o ke kahawai i Cordillera de la Sal, kahi e holo ai ka muliwaiʻo San Pedro.
Ua kūkuluʻia ka hale kiʻi kaulana kaulana, e like me nā mea noiʻi, i nā lā o mua o Columbian, aiʻole ma ka XII makahiki. Ua hanaʻia ka hale kaua no ka paleʻana i ka heluna o ka heluna mai nā pūʻali koa a me nāʻenemi e ka poʻe noho o nā kūlanakauhale'ē aʻe oʻAmelika Hema, a me ka paleʻana i nā alaʻoihanaʻoihana. Ma ke ala, ka palena kiʻekiʻe loa o ka puʻu kahi i kūkuluʻia ai ka pā kaua o Pukara de Kitor i 80 mau mika: mai kahi lōʻihi he mea maʻalahi loa ka mālamaʻana i ka neʻeʻana o kaʻenemi, aʻo ka pali kahakai i lilo i palekana.
ʻO ka nui o nā wahi i nohoʻia e ka hale kaua he 2.9 hekita. Ma kēia wahi, aia i kahi 200 mau hale i manaʻoʻia no ka poʻe e ola ana a me ka mālamaʻana i ka palaoa, ka lāʻau a me nā mea'ē aʻe. ʻO nā hana a pau e hanaʻia i pōhaku pōhaku māmā, ka mea e hoʻololi i ka malu i kahi'ālohilohi i ka lā.
I ka makahiki 1982, ua hoʻolahaʻia ka pākaua o Pucara de Quitor i ka Hōʻailona Nui o Chile a i kēia lā, he wahi hoʻokipa kaulana ia o ka'āina. ʻO kahi kipa i ka hale paʻa ua noa ka free a hiki i ka manawa kūpono no ka manawa.
