The architectural remains at the site of Pumamarca (Department of Cuzco, Pera) represent a style not identical to any style discussed in the literature hut most similar to Late Intermediate Period styles described by Kendall (1976). Comparison with Kendall's data suggests that Pumamarca belongs to the period immediately preceding the Inca Empire and that it served the higher social strata of the local popula tion. The data on Pumamarca may contribute to a better understanding of certain problematical buildings at the site of Ol?antaytambo
