Creator(s): Angie Payne
Year: 2005
Summary
The Putuni is one of the large stone monuments in the monumental core at the archaeological site Tiwanaku, Bolivia. It is located west of the large Kalasasaya monument.
The Center for Advanced Spatial Technologies (CAST), University of Arkansas conducted high density surveys of the Putuni with the Optech ILRIS-3D scanner. CAST researchers completed a survey in 2005. The scan files from the 2005 survey are provided here.
CAST completed another survey in 2006. The original scan files from the 2006 survey and the final registered point cloud (combined from both surveys) are available at the following tDAR URL: https://core.tdar.org/sensory-data/391595
