On the Origins of Social Complexity in the Central Andes and Possible Linguistic Correlations
This chapter tackles a number of problems surrounding the emergence and formation of complex societies in the central Andes, principally on the north and central coasts of Peru and their adjacent highlands. While chronology itself will form part of the discussion, there is general agreement in envisaging this process as taking place over a period of some three millennia between c.3000
Keywords: complex societies, central Andes, Middle Archaic, Middle Formative, social structure, economic systems
