Quello Cocha (Churcampa-Tayacaja)

Quello Cocha is a small lake located within the geographical region encompassing the provinces of Churcampa and Tayacaja in the Huancavelica Region of Peru. Its name, a combination of Quechua and Spanish, offers insight into its nature and history. "Cocha" is derived from the Quechua word for lake or lagoon. "Quello," likely also originating from Quechua, might refer to a specific feature or characteristic of the lake, though the exact meaning in this context requires more localized linguistic investigation. The lake is likely a freshwater body and a component of the hydrological system within the Andes Mountains in this region. Further research is needed to determine its specific ecological significance, size, depth, and any local legends or uses associated with it. Its existence is relevant to geographical and potentially environmental studies concerning the Huancavelica region.
