Profile
Since my first excavation in 1999, I have conducted research in the coastal areas of Peru. My primary research interest is in religious beliefs such as ancestor worship and views on life and death in the Andes during the pre-Columbian periods. Focusing on the Sicán Archaeological Complex, the paramount ceremonial center of the Lambayeque state that flourished on the Peruvian north coast about 1,000 years ago, I have investigated, by means of archaeological methods, the rituals associated with ancestor worship that are inferred to have been practiced there. Since 2016, I have been leading the Lambayeque Complex Archaeology Project and carried out excavations in the Great Plaza located at the center of the site.
