Abstract

This article presents a synthesis of the principal archaeological evidence obtained during the last three field seasons at the site of Cerro del Gentil in the middle Chincha Valley on Peru’s south coast. Based on these data, we propose the existences of a series of social practices that were conducted at the site. We further explore the implications of these results for understanding the Paracas and Topará occupations in the Chincha valley between the 6th and 2nd centuries BCE.
