Karajia consists of seven sarcophagi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third sarcophagus collapsed during the earthquake of 1928 and was lost in the abyss. As the sarcophagi are laterally connected to each other, the one that collapsed opened up fortifications in the sides of the adjoining sarcophagi.<br>This made it possible to identify the contents of these sarcophagi in detail and to determine the contents of the other sarcophagi, which thus did not have to be looted and remain intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside the open sarcophagus, a mummy was found, seated on a skin and wrapped in mortuary cloths. Ceramic objects and offerings among others accompanied the deceased. Radiocarbon dating of the organic remains gave a date of 1460 AD, rodents and wild birds had disturbed the burial site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other sarcophagus was empty because the mummy and its belongings had been decayed and removed from the site. The sarcophagi consist of large anthropomorphic capsules made of clay mixed with small branches and stones, applied to a structure of reeds or branches.<br>Only the head and part of the chest are compact. Both body and head are decorated with two-tone red paint applied on a white base.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"about-the-sarcophagi-of-karajia\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"About_the_Sarcophagi_of_Karajia\"><\/span>About the Sarcophagi of Karaj\u00eda.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"930\" height=\"300\" data-id=\"1645\" src=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cultura-chachapoyas.png\" alt=\"Chachapoyas\" class=\"wp-image-1645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cultura-chachapoyas.png 930w, https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/cultura-chachapoyas-768x248.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">cultura chachapoyas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"10879\" src=\"https:\/\/dreamy.tours\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/chachapoyas.jpg\" alt=\"chachapoyas\" class=\"wp-image-10879\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Chachapoyas<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">Caverna de Quiocta<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>These sarcophagi are considered to be evocations of the typical form of the coastal and Andean burial bundle from the Huari period.<br>In fact, in both cases, the anthropomorphic form has been given only in terms of the outline of the human body, with no evidence of the forms corresponding to the extremities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It should be noted that the head of the sarcophagus has received sculptural treatment, and that the face is the result of clay copies of funerary masks originally made from a slab cut in the shape of a half-moon to represent the mandible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-advgb-button_link advgbbtn-7818f08d-276f-4fec-829a-3199645f92ff\" 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>.
