PERU-ARCHAEOLOGY-WARI-EXHIBIT

A molded and painted canteen shaped jug, found part of a funeral bundle depicts a human figure wearing ear ornaments, a decorated head piece, and a short decorated skirt, is displayed at the Art Museum of Lima (MALI) on June 11, 2014, in an exhibit that brings together a representative selection of the pieces recovered from a noblewomans funerary chamber of the Castillo (Castle) of Huarmey, belonging to the pre-Inca Wari Culture (600-1000 BC), in central coastal Peru, 276 kilometers north of Lima, from an excavation initiated in 2012. From this discovery, scientists can address themes related the status and power of the elites, the relationship between women of the time and textile production, and the technologies used in metal, ceramics and woodworking.
