1. Slope / visible and hidden. Find a terrace wall and its level upper surface. Which source explains the interior fill? Write separately what the photograph shows and what the research describes.

2. Flow / different jobs. Write spring → channel → fountains. Then explain in another sentence why removing excess rainfall through surface and ground drainage is a different task.

3. Labour / beyond the frame. Read which human samples the 2023 research examined. Why does diverse ancestry not establish that everyone travelled here freely?

4. Memory / whose knowledge? Describe the roles of Melchor Arteaga, Álvarez and Richarte with a source. Explain the difference between international publicity and a place being known locally.
