Kasapata and the Archaic Period of the Cuzco Valley

Summary

It was widely believed that the first inhabitants of the Cuzco Valley were farmers who lived in scattered villages and that there were no Archaic Period remains in the region, until a systematic survey of the valley, when numerous preceramic sites were found. This is the first overview of the Archaic Period (9000 - 2200 BC) in the Cuzco Valley.
