Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Recent research in the southern Jequetepeque Valley provides evidence that gender ideologies, dualistic spatial orders, and geopolitical relations underwent major transformations between the late 7th and 9th centuries C.E. Data from the Late Moche site of Huaca Colorada demonstrate that a dualistic cosmological schema informed the layout of the main monument earlier in the Moche era. However, the foundation of the neighboring ceremonial center of Tecapa during the second half of the Middle Horizon intensified this dyadic layout, pointing to the significant influence of highland cultures in the reformulation of gender ideologies and political relations on the coast.
