Machu Picchu was the residence of Incan emperor Pachacútec, and a religious temple. It was considered one of the three sacred(er) peaks of the empire. When inhabited historians believe Machu Picchu’s population was somewhere around 300 to 1,000 Incas. According to current scholarship, all the residents were considered elites. They were supported by farming the terraces which surround the village and helped hold up some of the houses.
