Research Abstract |
Archaeological excavatios were carried out at two sites, Kuntur Wasi and Maichil, in the Cajamarca region, northern Peru. At Kuntur Wasi, continuing the earlier works, the excavation uncovered : (1) the earliest temple of the Idolo phase (1200-800BC) which experienced the renewal three times ; (2) a platform of the Kuntur Wasi phase (800-500BC) with a tomb possibly of a priestassociated with several gold objects like a crown, ear ornaments, and other objects ; (3) a platform complex of the Copa phase (500-250BC) with relief decoration, stairways on the north face, and a group of small rooms posssibly for storage. At Maichil, a small site of artificial mound near Kuntur Wasi, two trenches were excavated to clarify the stratigraphy of the site. It was revealed that the remains of the Formative period had been thrown away by later activities of Cajamarca culture, although it is certain that the earliest occupation was aroud 1500BC. In sum, the research is deepening our knowledge of the relationship between temples and society during the beginning of Andean civilization and the role of the priests during that process.
