There are many unanswered questions about the population history of Central and South Andes, particularly regarding impact large-scale societies, such as Moche, Wari, Tiwanaku, Inca. We assembled genome-wide data on 89 individuals dating from ∼9,000-500 years ago (BP), with a particular focus period rise fall state societies. Today's genetic structure began to develop by 5,800 BP, followed bi-directional gene flow between North Highlands, Highlands Coast. detect minimal admixture among...
The present article considers evidence for ancestor veneration and feasting in the North Highlands (Department of Ancash), Peru between A. D. 500-900. study draws upon ethnohistorical, iconographic, archaeological comparisons to better understand different lines data from ancient Recuay community Chinchawas (3,850 masl), including public mortuary architecture, ceramics, faunal remains, stone sculpture.

The author explores a changing core–periphery relationship in first millennium AD Peru, from the viewpoint of small North Highlands village.
Flourishing from A.D. 1 to 700, the Recuay inhabited lands in northern Peru just below imposing glaciers of highest mountain chain tropics. Thriving on an economy high-altitude crops and camelid herding, they left behind finely made artworks grand palatial buildings with unprecedented aesthetic a high degree technical sophistication.

This article evaluates defensive works at the ancient hilltop centre of Yayno, Pomabamba, north highlands, Peru. Survey, mapping and sampling excavations show that its primaryoccupation dates to cal. AD 400–800, by groups Recuay tradition. At a network articulating small nearby farming villages, Yayno features an impressive series natural built strategies. These worked in concert protect community from outsiders keep internal physically segregated. The fortifications are discussed relation...
Abstract This article examines the production and exchange of kaolin ceramics among Recuay communities in highland Ancash, Peru (ca. 100–700 ce ). We draw upon geochemical (laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry; LA‐ICP‐MS) petrographic data to investigate raw material use, provenance, intraregional trade. present on 115 decorated plain sampled from nine archaeological sites, which we compare with clays. The results indicate a complex network exchange, included: (1)...
