Living at Quilcapampa
View through CrossRef
A description of the excavations in light of the architectural divisions discussed in the previous chapter, this chapter places emphasis on the short duration of occupation and the ways in which the site was abandoned. We see in differences in the ways that people lived in the core and outlying area, differences that will be more fully explored in the material-based chapters that follow. A Bayesian analysis of the radiocarbon dates confirms our assessment from the limited occupation levels and sparse material remains: Quilcapampa was only occupied for a few decades. The chapter also details the site’s orderly abandonment that involved the filling in of doorways, the smashing of artifacts, the laying of fills, and, perhaps, the unearthing of ancestral mummies that were taken with the occupants as they left the region.
