They shared many features in their architecture and material culture, but slight differences in the iconography and funerary practices at the interregional level could be reminiscent of the origins and traditions of the different subgroups, which migrated over a thousand years ago to the almost uninhabited area east of the Rio Marañon. The oral tradition transmitted to the Spanish informs us of the dual organization of Chachapoya chiefdoms: The power was divided between two chiefs, one with political power and representative of the cult, and the other closely linked with military affairs. The Chachapoya were known as brave warriors who practiced trophy head-hunting. During archaeological research in rock shelters in the province of Luya (2007) several graves of presumed Chachapoya warriors were located associated with cave paintings, which depict these warriors with their weapons and the practice of trophy head-hunting. The men were buried with varied grave goods and demonstrate fractures in various parts of the body, but especially in the skull (including trepanations). The cave paintings and the presence of “late” objects indicate that the hunting of trophy heads continued until the early colonial period.Los cronistas españoles describieron a los Chachapoya como una confederación de varios subgrupos organizados en curacazgos de variable complejidad y tamaño. Compartían numerosos rasgos en su arquitectura y cultura material, pero ligeras diferencias en la iconografía y en las prácticas funerarias a nivel interregional podrían ser reminiscencias a los origenes y tradiciones de los distintos subgrupos, los cuales migraron hace más de mil años hacia la casi despoblada zona al este del río Marañon. La tradición oral transmitida a los españoles nos informa acerca de la organización dual de los curacazgos Chachapoya: El poder fue repartido entre dos curacas, uno con poder político y representante del culto y el otro estrechamente ligado con asuntos bélicosos. Los Chachapoya tenían fama de ser valientes guerreros que practicaban la caza de cabezas trofeo. Durante nuestras investigaciones arqueológicas en abrigos rocosos de la provincia de Luya (2007) fueron localizadas varias tumbas de presuntos guerreros Chachapoya, asociadas con pinturas rupestres, que demuestran la presencia de estos guerreros con sus armas y la práctica de la caza de cabezas trofeo. Los hombres fueron enterrados con un ajuar funerario variado y muestran fracturas en varias partes del cuerpo, especialmente en el cráneo (trepanación). Las pinturas rupestres y la presencia de objetos “tardíos” comprueban que la caza de cabezas trofeo continuó hasta la época Colonial Temprano.Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Lima2010-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/Arqueo/article/view/1228610.15381/arqueolsoc.2010n22.e12286Arqueología y Sociedad; No. 22 (2010); 9 - 38Arqueología y Sociedad; Núm. 22 (2010); 9 - 382810-85660254-8062reponame:Revistas - Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstname:Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstacron:UNMSMspahttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/Arqueo/article/view/12286/10994Derechos de autor 2010 Klaus Koschmiederi, Catherine Gaitherhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.csi.unmsm:article/122862020-05-06T17:02:43Z
