The Chavin culture was very architectural and they built huge temples and buildings. They made marvelous carvings and pottery of what seemed to be a ferocious-looking god, part jaguar and part human.
The Mochica people forged their own empire and they were very skilled farmers, developing methods of terracing, irrigation, and fertilization.
