Abstract
Archaeological evidence regarding tombs from the Late Intermediate Period is perhaps the most abundant in the central Andes compared to other periods, particularly in the highlands. This research focuses on the Conchucos region in Ancash, through systematic surveys and excavations a large number of tombs were identified, that shed light on the funerary customs of the ethnic groups (Huari and Pinco) who inhabited this region during the aforementioned period. Based on the variety of funerary structures, we present a typology of tombs that helps standardize the descriptions and nomenclature of tombs in the Ancash region.
