A Brief Introduction
Located in the Peruvian Andes, Chavín de Huántar was the strategic capital and religious center of the pre-Inca, Chavín civilization. The project team from the University of California at Berkeley traveled to Chavín to digitally preserve this important site. The project's goal was to support and supplement archaeological activities and research being conducted by Stanford University with the intent of the new data becoming the foundation for an on-site conservation plan.
Statement of Data QualityChavín de Huántar was digitally preserved to provide supplemental information to archaeological excavations and conservation work occurring on-site. All above-ground exteriors and facades were fully documented along with select significant subterranean /internal galleries. Additional subterranean and internal spaces may be added to the project if they become available.
