This culture was a set of developing autonomous communities. The Chachapoyas lived southeast of the Bracamoros, on the right bank of the Mara\u00f1\u00f3n River.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Their development was centred on the Utcubamba river valley, they also possessed fortifications and structures of a military nature, but despite this, they were conquered by the Incas in 1470. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An almost forgotten culture developed there, made up of various ethnic groups, located at an altitude of around 3,000 metres, which lasted until 1470 when they were subjugated by the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/cusco\/machu-picchu\/\">Incas<\/a><\/strong>.

They have ramps or inclined stairs facing the entrance and are usually erected on platforms located on slopes. The most prominent architectural complexes are Ku\u00e9lap and Gran Pajat\u00e9n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ceramics\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ceramics\"><\/span>Ceramics:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/chachapoyas\/vivencial-chachapoyas-6-days\/\">Chachapoya <\/a><\/strong>pottery was generally quite simple, especially when compared to the textile arts in which local craftsmen excelled. Most of the pottery found is utilitarian, worked with the rolling technique or simply forming the clay mass with the fingers. The decoration techniques used were: appliqu\u00e9 technique, stamping, stippling and incision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"textiles\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Textiles\"><\/span>Textiles:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In textile work, they basically used cotton and, to a lesser extent, llama and alpaca wool. The backstrap loom was the most widely used. In Laguna de los C\u00f3ndores, good quality fabrics used to wrap mummies in Inca times have been found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarcophagi of Karaj\u00eda are an important vestige of pre-Inca tombs whose construction is attributed to the so-called Chachapoyas culture. These sarcophagi are located in the district of Conila, in the province of Luya, in the region of Amazonas at about 2600 meters above sea level. And it is estimated that they could have been built between 1000 and 1300 AD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sarcophagi-of-karajia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sarcophagi_of_Karajia\"><\/span>Sarcophagi of Karaj\u00eda:  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/chachapoyas\/enigmatic-chachapoyas-5-days\/\">Sarcophagi of Karajia<\/a><\/strong> are called <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/chachapoyas\/fortified-citadel-of-kuelap-full-day-2\/\">purunmachus <\/a><\/strong>are anthropomorphic sculptures that exceed two metres in height.

The sarcophagi are also leaning back against the rock of the cave that houses them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The purunmachus consist of a flat, broad face made of clay, a bust on which can be seen various geometric motifs typical of the constructions of this culture and which symbolise their protective deities, and a hollow body which serves as a funerary receptacle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The heads of the Karaj\u00eda monuments are characterised by the presence of protruding noses that give the impression that they are the beaks of birds of prey, as well as having more pronounced mandibles than normal. The so-called &#8220;trophy skulls&#8221; can be seen on the heads of the monuments in the form of a headdress or crown, which lent a sense of majesty to the sculpture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/chachapoyas\/enigmatic-chachapoyas-5-days\/\">sarcophagi <\/a><\/strong>were hollow structures, they had enough space inside them to house an illustrious dead person, who, in order to be contained in their funerary cavity, had to be previously mummified and seated in the foetal position, as well as being wrapped in various typical cloaks of their people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-advgb-button_link advgbbtn-0b59d457-eee1-494f-a337-8e26d4c662a6\" href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/chachapoyas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span><strong>Book my Chachapoyas Tours Now!<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-contact-us\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_Us\"><\/span>Contact Us:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information, please contact us&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/\">DREAMY TOURS<\/a><\/strong>, we will be happy to answer all your questions regarding tours in all Peru and&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/en\/bolivia\/\">Bolivia<\/a><\/strong>.
