A Quecheuyan visit
Posted on 19 August 2011 - 11:11 AM
Our visit to a Quecheuyan community.
We went on a bus to a community out of Cusco. The name of this community is called Huerta. The iwi of Huerta are the Quecheuyan people. Their maunga are called Andes. It´s alot different from Kawhia because their homes are built of mud bricks, there are twigs, mud and sand. They are light brown, and they stack the mud bricks on top of eachother like we stack our concrete bricks. We went to one house and they had one room for the guinea pigs because they want to eat them. They keep their guinea pigs like we keep our farm animals - for their food. The toilets have no seats, I had to squat over the hole and do my business. I realised that we have more things than them like a warm house, a toilet seat, a big school, computers, IWB, our own desks and cameras.
