Just where I'd put a marketplace: in a large linear formation on top of a mountain ridge.

I'm curious to what degree pre-Columbian civilizations aren't well understood due to the lack of evidence beyond our control, versus the lack of study/attention to the region. I imagine the dense and difficult terrain doesn't help either.
