EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the ancient city of Kotosh, located in Huanuco, Peru. The remains captured here belong to the Late Archaic Period, dating from 2300 to 1200 BCE. With its distinct Chavin influence, this archaeological site has fascinated researchers and historians for centuries. The image was skillfully created by Luis Rosendo, who beautifully captures the essence of Kotosh's rich cultural heritage. The stone ruins depicted in the photograph are a testament to the advanced architectural skills and artistic traditions of this ancient civilization. Julio C. Tello, a renowned archaeologist, was one of the first scholars to study Kotosh and shed light on its significance. His groundbreaking research unveiled valuable insights into the religious traditions and daily life of this enigmatic culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time; we can almost hear echoes of prayers and rituals that once filled these sacred grounds. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared human history and invites us to explore further into Peru's fascinating past.
