Abstract

The vertebrate and invertebrate remains at Quilcapampa provide a window into diet and, to a lesser degree, personal decoration. These remains are divided into genus and species and coded in terms of how each specimen may have been burnt, polished, gnawed, or otherwise modified. We then explore spatial differences across the site in the faunal remains. The key find is that camelid processing significantly differed between the core and outlying area, with better cuts of meat consumed in the core. Shell bead production, at a limited scale, may have also occurred in the core. Isotope analysis of camelid remains suggest that some llamas were on the move, going from the highlands to the coast and back again. The chapter indicates, once again, that people followed distinct practices in different areas of the site.
