Regarding the Chan Chan archaeological zone’s construction, we can remark that most of the complex is encircled by tall walls. Some have a maximum height of 15 meters (50 feet) and only one entrance, making it easier to monitor who entered and left. The citadels are organized into three central regions and have some rectangular guarded spaces (Achino and Barceló 112). A mathematically-based visual model must be put in place to aid in comprehension to help archeologists evaluate the ancient Peruvian ruins more thoroughly by attempting to comprehend the way their inhabitants thought.
Mathematicians can externalize the act of observation by utilizing a device like a range scanner, which can record a surface without having any direct implications. Based on the result of the investigation, the geometrical model looks to be an accurate representation of the real world. The modeling is substantially aided by attributes like length and a visual assessment of the form given by the ancient ruins (Achino and Barceló 112). When converting from a coordinate-based elliptical Quadratic representation of a complicated two-dimensional outline to a coordinate-free representation of the outline utilizing curvature is involved, mathematicians can also apply equivalent methods to generate an objective shape model (Achino and Barceló 112). The objective is to offer an accurate biological depiction of the ancient location.
As mathematicians, we should consider the prospect of directly monitoring and quantifying people’s activity in the old ruin. Findings that correlate with the causes of barriers to wealth generation can yield social data (Achino and Barceló 112). The existence or absence of social acts, including habitation, project initiation, sophisticated dwelling structures, store structural members, and constructed waterways, can be measured qualitatively to determine these correlates (Achino and Barceló 112). Archeologists can use the geographical cumulative distribution measure associated with each settlement to statistically evaluate population density based on a location’s physical closeness to nearby sites. Distance is one of the dynamic parameters controlling the process of city formation if settlement concentration is an essential component.
Due to the high levels of social contact found in the ancient Peruvian civilization’s ruins, any change in the settlement pattern toward a greater concentration of sites should be accompanied by a decrease in the distances between individual sites. Estimating the size of the water ways being used, multiplying the depth, breadth and height of the water ways, as well as the wells that reserved the water would give a clear estimate of how many inhabitants the city had. Adding both volume estimates and dividing them by the individual water reserves in the homesteads and other areas would clearly show the utility of water in the area, hence giving further information on what the residents did for a living. Calculating the potential maximum degree of contact based on the projected population requires statistical estimates. Estimates of the population can be determined by measuring the size of populated areas. It is necessary to estimate the disparity and directionality of interaction fluxes (Achino and Barceló 112). It is, therefore, necessary to integrate the hierarchy between social cores, such as the emerging urban core, and peripheries, such as the exploitative agrarian periphery.
People could understand the riches the Peruvian population had amassed there by placing these ruins under the integrated variables, which was closely correlated with the degree of control the metropolis at the center had over the nearby rural area (Achino and Barceló 112). That is one example of how mathematicians could have used such demography to gauge social action in the past. It is vital to consider statistically assessing the contour of architectural structures and even large spatial patterns (Achino and Barceló 112). Archeologists and tourists can understand the ruins’ past occupants’ skill levels by seeing the induced texture of the undeniable evidence of etched, carved, and decorative patterns on the walls. Magnificent inscriptions with geometrical and zoomorphic patterns may be seen on even the palace’s surrounding walls. Chan Chan can be regarded as one of Peru’s most incredible archaeological gems due to the way it was constructed.
