It is a pre-Inca pyramid of adobe
bricks. It was one of the most important
administrative and ceremonial centers of
the Lima culture, settled in the areas
of the Chancay, Chillón, Rimac, and
Lurín valleys from 200 A.D. – 700 A.D.
Sometimes, events or musical shows take
place there. You can also find a site
museum that exhibits pieces found in the
excavations. The complex was a
ceremonial and administrative center run
by the Lima culture (400 AD), which
controlled the Lima Valley. There is
evidence of religious ceremonies, rites
and sacrifices in honor of their
deities, and possibly this was where the
high priests lived. The Pucllana
Historical Park features an on-site
museum and areas of research,
conservation and restoration, as well as
cultural promotion. (PromPeru) |
