The End of Ayawiri: Abandonment at an Andean Hillfort Town of the Late Intermediate Period

Journal of Field Archaeology, 2017
ABSTRACTAs the south-central Andes came under Inca control, many hillfort towns and villages were abandoned in favor of low-lying, non-defensive settlements. Recent investigation at Ayawiri (Machu Llaqta), a fortified hilltop town in the Titicaca Basin of southern Peru, sheds light on how such sites met their end.

Local Elites and the Reformation of Late Intermediate Period Sociopolitical and Economic Organization in Nasca, Peru

Latin American Antiquity, 2003
AbstractThe Late Intermediate Period (A.D. 1000–1476) was a time between empires in the Andes when many regional groups reorganized and gained power. In the Nasca drainage this period has often been misrepresented, in part due to a focus on earlier cultural developments that were considerably different.

Prehispanic Warfare during the Early Horizon and Late Intermediate Period in the Huaura Valley, Perú

Ten radiocarbon dates from recent excavations at the fortress of Acaray in the Huaura Valley, Peru, confirm the site was used during two periods: the Early Horizon (ca.
