The Pottery of Chincha Revisited

Summary

This is an abstract from the "Developments through Time on the South Coast of Peru: In Memory of Patrick Carmichael" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Recent studies on the late prehispanic periods in the Chincha Valley, Peru, have enabled scholars to obtain a better understanding of the Chincha Kingdom. However, the pottery of Late Intermediate period and Late Horizon Chincha Valley has received little attention since the Dorothy Menzel’s critical studies in the 1970s. This study aims to expand our knowledge of Chincha ceramics by revisiting recent analyses on a sample of Chincha pottery that spans various contexts and numerous sites throughout the Chincha Valley.
