Archaeology and Natural History

Key associations for the solution of this problem are provided by a tomb at Pinilla, near Ocucaje in the middle lea Valley, which was excavated by the 1952 Columbia University expedition to the south coast of Peru under the leadership of William Duncan Strong. Some time has passed since this work was done, but its intrinsic importance warrants a description more exhaustive than the brief note which appeared in the expedition^ summary report.^ The purpose of this article is to present the particulars of the Pinilla tomb as fully as possible from the evidence now at hand.
