📋 Tender Overview
Specialists are investigating the pyramidal platform of Walled Complex 2 to determine its chronology and impact on cultural development in the La Leche-Motupe valley, Lambayeque. The Ministry of Culture, through the Executive Unit 005 Naylamp Lambayeque - UE005, reports that the research project Recovery of the Walled Complex 2 of the Central Sector of the Huaca Bandera Archaeological Complex - Stage 2024- I, located in the Pacora district, in the Lambayeque region, concluded its fourth stage of research.
This was reported by the director of the Executive Unit 005 Naylamp Lambayeque - UE005 archaeologist Carlos Wester La Torre, responsible for the research project, after successfully completing the fourth season of the project, which has an investment budget of S/515,442.51 and employed 34 people.
The work of the fourth stage was satisfactorily concluded according to schedule. Six excavation units were intervened to recover information on the architectural characteristics of the main pyramid of the Walled Complex 2, as well as research work in the office and conservation of cultural material, he reported.
He also indicated that other activities carried out in this stage were the construction of two temporary covers to protect the exposed excavations, while the other four units were sealed again, in order to preserve the evidence so that they can continue to be studied in the future. Director Wester said that a new stage of research for the project should begin in the coming weeks. A new intervention will allow us to move forward with this archaeological research project that we have been carrying out since 2018 with the aim of continuing to collect and analyze samples from the site, and to have a more complete understanding of its chronology and its impact on cultural development in the lower part of the La Leche Valley, Lambayeque, approximately 800 BC, he said. In this regard, it was reported that the Infrastructure and Projects Unit of UE005 is finalizing the technical file for the next season, which is expected to begin in the next few days.
