Famosos por su arquitectura monumental y su rica cultura visual, los Moche habitaron la costa norte de Perú durante el período Intermedio Temprano (100-800 dC). Los descubrimientos arqueológicos en el siglo pasado y la difusión de los artefactos Moche a museos de todo el mundo han dado lugar a una fascinación generalizada por esta cultura compleja, que expresó su creencia sobre el mundo humano y sobrenatural a través objetos de cerámica y metal finamente elaborados de realismo sorprendente y sofisticación visual.

En este trabajo de estandarización, un equipo internacional y multidisciplinario de expertos que están a la vanguardia de la investigación Moche presentará una visión general del virtuosismo de la técnica de la cultura Moche. Los contribuyentes abordar diversos aspectos de la sociedad Moche, su religión y su cultura material basandose en varias líneas de evidencias y en varias metodologías, incluidos los estudios iconográficos, las investigaciones arqueológicas y los análisis forenses. Algunos de los artículos presentan los resultados de los estudios a largo plazo de las principales cuestiones en la iconografía Moche, mientras que otros se centran en temas más específicamente definido como los estudios de sitio, la influencia de El Fenómeno del Niño / Oscilación del Sur en la sociedad Moche, la naturaleza de la guerra y el sacrificio entre los Moche, y el papel de la cultura visual Moche en la descodificación de los marcos sociales y políticos.

Renowned for their monumental architecture and rich visual culture, the Moche inhabited the north coast of Peru during the Early Intermediate Period (AD 100-800). Archaeological discoveries over the past century and the dissemination of Moche artifacts to museums around the world have given rise to a widespread and continually increasing fascination with this complex culture, which expressed its beliefs about the human and supernatural worlds through finely crafted ceramic and metal objects of striking realism and visual sophistication.

In this standard-setting work, an international, multidisciplinary team of scholars who are at the forefront of Moche research present a state-of-the-art overview of Moche culture. The contributors address various issues of Moche society, religion, and material culture based on multiple lines of evidence and methodologies, including iconographic studies, archaeological investigations, and forensic analyses. Some of the articles present the results of long-term studies of major issues in Moche iconography, while others focus on more specifically defined topics such as site studies, the influence of El Nio/Southern Oscillation on Moche society, the nature of Moche warfare and sacrifice, and the role of Moche visual culture in decoding social and political frameworks.
