Tumbas de la época Wari en el Callejón de Huaylas, Áncash

Abstract

Wari Tombs in the Callejón de Huaylas, Department of Ancash

Excavations of Wari period chullpas in the Callejon de Huaylas have produced important new evidence of mortuary patterns in that region, while also furnishing associated artifacts that can be compared with materials from the adjacent coast. Based on evaluations of former research results the authors propose the existence of a single socio-political unit that united the coast and highlands of Ancash during the time period under study.
