El Algarrobal De Moro: A Lower-level Administrative Center in the Jequetepeque Valley on Peru’s North Coast
El Algarrobal de Moro is a lower-level Chimú administrative center located within the larger archaeological complex of San Jose de Moro in the Jequetepeque Valley of Peru’s north coast. El Algarrobal was an intrusive center constructed ca. A.D. 1400 some 100 years after the Chimú conquest of the valley. This research contrasts El Algarrobal with known Chimú lower-level centers in the Moche and Chicama Valleys and although similarities exist, the …
Lambayeque Silver Beakers: Further Considerations
Two silver beakers now in the collection of the Denver Art Museum bear some of the most complex iconography known from the ancient Andes. The vessels are stylistically associated with Lambayeque, a
Chimu Statecraft in the Provinces
La transformación socioeconómica de Farfán bajo el gobierno inka
La estrategia política inka en el valle de Jequetepeque era desconocida hasta las investigaciones arqueológicas recientes llevadas a cabo en el centro administrativo de Farfán. Los resultados de estas han mostrado los cambios políticos, económicos e ideológicos iniciados por los inkas después de su conquista de este centro chimú. Los inkas establecieron nuevos rangos de burócratas, construyeron nuevas estructuras de almacenamiento e introdujeron …
Pre-Hispanic Ridged Fields of the Casma Valley, Peru
ECAUSE of the aridity of the environment, the desert coast of Peru might seem to be an unusual setting for a ridged field system. Ridged fields in lowlands are generally associated with areas of poor drainage or seasonal inundation. Many valleys along the Peruvian coast with irrigation contain agricultural features like canals as well as sunken gardens and flood-control embankments that are associated with a high water table or inundation. 1 In a…
Construction and Labor Organization in the Chimu Empire
Most information on the Chimu empire has been based on research centering on the capital city of Chan Chan and its environs. The Proyecto Chimu Sur, directed by the authors, has expanded the field of investigation to the site of Manchan in the Casma Valley, a Chimu regional center. Thus far work at Manchan has included the map ping of eighty-five percent of the architecture and the excavation of fifty-three two-by-two meter cuts located in the ad…
Ancient Burial Patterns of the Moche Valley, Peru
Archaeologists working in the Moche Valley of Peru have uncovered a number of tombs representing various cultures that flourished there prior to European contact. This book provides a full description of 103 such burials, spanning a period of more than 3,500 years. Each burial is documented with an accurate illustration of every artifact found, as well as details on the location, matrix, and construction of the graves, the individuals in the grav…
Peruvian Settlement Pattern Studies and Small Site Methodology
Settlement pattern research was introduced to Peruvian archaeology by Gordon R. Willey 2 decades ago. A critical review of this pioneering work points up a basic problem in the structure of analysis. The problem is generated by the use of a simple site taxonomy that is insensitive to the range of human activities that went on at different settlements. Examination of the subsequent course of settlement pattern research shows that this fundamental …
