Item type:Publication, Macabalaca: New evidence of the Kotosh religious tradition in the Huarmey Valley, Peru(Cambridge University Press, 2022-12-23)Rescue excavations at the site of Macabalaca (PV35-72) in the Huarmey Valley, Peru, identified a rectangular structure with niches on its walls and a floor with a central hearth. We present results of those excavations, emphasizing the stratigraphic components and relative chronology. We conclude that the structure belongs to the Kotosh Religious Tradition (KRT) and can be preliminarily placed in the Late Archaic (2800-1800 BC) or Early Formative period (1800-1200 BC). - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Geoglyphs in the Andean Central Coast: Combining digital and traditional survey techniques(Cambridge University Press, 2024-12-01)This Andean coast research has identified 113-plus geoglyphs spanning the Formative (1800-100 BC) to the Inka period (AD 1470-1532). The project combined digital technology and Remotely Piloted Airborne Systems to locate the sites. The authors also documented examples of ceramics and intricate road systems and suggest that the finds represent meticulously ritualised landscapes. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Embedded Religiousness and the Kotosh Religious Tradition in Highland Peru: The Site of La Seductora(Cambridge University Press, 2023-04-25)Religion played a key role in the social organisation and political authority of early Andean societies. Excavations at La Seductora in Peru have identified a circular structure with a central hearth and an underground ventilation shaft. The authors argue that the structure belongs to the Kotosh religious tradition, which dominated the central Andes during the Late Archaic and Formative periods (2800-550 BC). Probably representing a small shrine for use by local families, the authors situate La Seductora within the context of power and religiosity in Andean society, providing a model of relevance to similar contexts elsewhere in the world. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, U-shaped power: Infantas and the ritual-political nexus of Formative-period monumentality in the Chillón Valley, Perú(Cambridge University Press, 2025-12-01)Excavations at the Infantas complex in Chillón Valley, Perú, revealed a U-shaped monumental centre with a central mound, clay staircase and columned atrium. Aligned with structures from the Rímac and Lurín valleys, these complexes anchored ritual-political power, serving as hubs for ideological integration and territorial organisation in early Andean societies.3
