Occupation

As for people of モチェ,Irrigated agricultureHaving done, either it was not unusual for the canal which covers several kilometers to be constructed ラ those which are called the canal of blurring reached also 110k m or more. In addition also the storage of water tank and the like which reaches to also several hundred cubic meters was made. As for the plant which is cultivated,Sweet corn、 bean、 peanut、 potato and チューニョ (dry potato), red pepper、 tapioca is sweet, ヒョウタン、 cucumber and the like, many are imitated even in the earthenware.

Change and fall of dominant system

Concerning the dominant system of モチェ, times past, the governmental body of the rice cake ェ river extending power gradually on north and south, were thought that it keeps spreading uniformly, but recently,ランバイェケ riverDrainage basinシパン(Sipan)ヘケテペケ riverラ = ミナ of the drainage basin (LaMina) and the like excavation investigation advancing? Period? ? The モチェ image changed due to the fact that the ruins of period is investigated.

Recently, = Moseley theory and Michael by the Shimada spring (Moseley) due to the theory is powerful. As for Shimada theory? As for the governmental body of the モチェ river, "construction of the sanctuary pyramid which is called the ワ mosquito" of ワカ month "of the sun" started being constructed the adobe (the dobie) with from period. The ランバイェケ Kawakami style which is located on the one hand septentrional governmental body was gaining force. Both continued to develop in the form which coexists with common conception and technical technology. ? When it is period, the governmental body of the モチェ river attends the governmental body of each river valley which is on south side, the governmental body of ランバイェケ extends power to the downstream limits. ? When it is period, the governmental body of the モチェ river could follow the governmental body of ランバイェケ. Concerning this, designating that the building where the feature which in the earthenware and the building was seen in the septentrional governmental body disappears, is new is built as evidence. As for Moseley theory, south side, with the direct control by the governmental body of the モチェ river, ランバイェケ is the theory which you think that it was controlled indirectly.

Furthermore, モチェ? When it is period, it is the city ruins which has the geometric structure which "ワカ of the sun" and "the ワ mosquito of month" are abandoned, are divided higher-levelガリンドWas constructed. In addition, it has the structure which is similar well even with ランバイェケPan pas = greatThe city is constructed. However, pan pas = greatly, the pyramid which reaches to the height, 55m ワカ = フォルタレサ was constructed. Concerning this change, it is known at the city ruins which has geometric cell constructionワリInvasion theory was advocated to the sixties, but presently, it is thought that it probably is the drying conversion with the climatic variation of second half of the 6th century. In addition モチェ? As for the realistic patterning earthenware it was not made in period, the monotone like repetition of the complicated ceremony and religion symbol it buried surface the whole vessel with the figure image and, the kind of earthenware which is exhausted was made.

Fall of モチェ is not invasion and the like of ワリ, テオティワカン and classical periodMayaAs thought that so was, the researcher who presumes that disintegration it kept doing with the rebellion and the like inside it is.
