This post has a link to our full decipherment photo image for SaksayWaman.
UPDATE: The link below in this posting gives you a quick panorama photo but Blogger compresses the data so much that the image text is not readable, even if you click the image. Accordingly, we now have a link to the original bitmap at http://ancientworldblog.blogspot.com/2015/06/readable-full-decipherment-photo-image.html but be aware that 120 MB takes time to load (minutes), if at all, depending on the speed of your internet connection and your hardware.
Because of the size of the panorama image (20064 pixels wide and ca. 9.8 MB as a jpg), it can not be reproduced in full size here given the blog dimensions.

Please note that we are not affiliated with Martin St-Amant in any way and that our interpretation of Saksaywaman via his original photograph is our opinion alone. We have added the "helping" colored lines and explanatory text interpretation materials in the photograph above.
The decipherment must be considered quite "provisional" since there are still many unanswered questions. One of them is whether the otherwise unidentified individual boulders (megaliths) or smaller groups of stones, especially those that seem to be in a pattern, represent particular stars in the sky. We are certain that there is more to the site than what we have initially discovered.
