Kaillachuro’s Hunter-Gatherers Built Monumental Burial Mounds In The Titicaca Basin 1,500 Years Earlier Than Previously Thought

Archaeologists have traditionally believed that monumental architecture—large, human-constructed structures designed for visibility—was a hallmark of societies with established power structures, including social hierarchies, inequality, and organized labor forces.
However, this perspective is being re-evaluated as new findings suggest that hunter-gatherer groups also constructed such edifices.
Recent research from the University of California researchers reveals evidence of monumental structures created by hunter-gatherer communities at Kaillachuro, located 3930m above sea level, on the highest terrace in the middle Ilave drainage of the Lake Titicaca Basin in southern Peru.
The site, discovered during a pedestrian archaeological survey in 1995, comprises burial mounds located in the Titicaca Basin of the Peruvian Andes. The discovery suggests that monumental architecture appeared in this region 1,500 years earlier than previously believed.
