The Case of the Hungry Calves

Hualcan is a Quechua-speaking Andean Highland Indian village in the District of Carhuaz, Department of Ancash, Peru. The settlement is located in a narrow valley, the Chucchun, which opens into the Callejon de Huaylas just south of the town of Carhuaz, a little over six miles west of the village. The Hualcan lands belong to the Indians who live there, and on the basis of this fact the settlement is locally classified as an estancia, an independent land-owning community, as distinguished from an hacienda, or estate, which is often in the hands of an overseer appointed by an absentee landlord
