  • 1. Huaca del Sol y la Luna Trujillo
    The Huaca del Sol is an adobe brick temple built by the Moche civilization on the northern coast of what is now Peru.

The other major ruin at the site is the nearby Huaca de la Luna, a better-preserved but smaller temple. By 450 CE, eight different stages of construction had been completed on the Huaca del Sol.

  • 3. El Brujo Trujillo
    Located in the Chicama Valley, the El Brujo Archaeological Complex, just north of Trujillo, La Libertad Province, Peru, is an ancient archaeological site that was occupied from preceramic times.

The research benefits from the favourable environmental and topological conditions for material conservation. Huaca Prieta is the earliest part of the complex but he biggest constructions on the site belong to the Moche culture. In this area, there are also the remains of the later Lambayeque and Chimú.
