The Chavin civilization flourished between 900 and 200 BC. The site of Chavin de Huantar is dramatic – up on a mountain top. The most important Chavin religious site was here, Chavin de Huantar in the Mosna Valley, which was in use for over five centuries and became a pilgrimage site famed throughout the region. The site is significantly placed at the meeting point of two rivers.
The “Old Temple” dates from c. 750 BCE and is actually a complex of buildings which together form a U-shape and surround an open plaza. Stepped platforms rise up to support buildings that seem to have had a ceremonial function as this was a religious capital. The flat-topped temple structure was originally 200 feet tall and had a hidden entrance that led to stone corridors within. The “New Temple”, constructed between 500 and 200 BC, is also based on a gallery and plaza design and contained many relief sculptures.
