The Moche are my favorite culture in Peru. This is a long artical, collection of articals in fact. These photographs and narative demonstrate Socal Justice as understood by the Moche in detail.

Me too!! I have been enthralled by them since the Huaca Rajada discoveries back in the 80s. What a thriller. The jewelry and metalwork is beyond compare. And the Peruvians just keep coming up with better and better stuff. One of my projects is to go to Lambayeque (and of course Trujillo, etc.) and see the museums.

Ancient “Human Sacrifices” Found in Peru, Expert Says

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2008/06/080604-human-sacrifice.html

Three possible human sacrifice victims have been found at a 4,000-year-old archaeological site in Peru, an archaeologist says.

The apparently mutilated, partial skeletons (see photos) could overturn the peaceful reputation of the Pre-Ceramic period (3000 B.C. to 1800 B.C.) in the Andes mountains - a time generally seen as free of ritualized killing and warfare.
