This work investigates the evolution of urban design in the Andes
of South America to ascertain if there existed in pre-Hispanic
times a shared Andean tradition of urban planning. Since, in
previous research, Andean urban planning has been treated as the
product of individual sites or cultures, this study explores the
repeated use of design elements within Andean urban planning, in
order to isolate specific elements for individual functional
analysis within the context of a cultural tradition. The primary
focus is to demonstrate clearly the urban design connection that
forms a coherent Andean urban planning tradition shared between the
urban civilizations of the Andes from the inception of urbanism
around the beginning of the third millennium BC until the cultural
disruption of the Spanish conquest in the mid-sixteenth century AD.
