Summary
This study focuses on five Moche tombs that were excavated at the site of Dos Cabezas, on the north coast of Peru, between 1997 and 2000. The goal of the volume is to provide full documentation of the tombs and their contents in full color, describe the chronology of construction phases for the pyramid in which they were found, and explain how these tombs expand our understanding of Moche civilization.
