This site (1700m) consists of a collection of nine weather-worn stone statues of warriors, women and priests, located under one roof and similar to those of San Agustín. The site is poorly signed – if you're coming from El Duende (a 30-minute walk), look for the sign facing the other way after you pass the simple adobe house with a tin roof on the hillside on the left-hand side.
