| Resumo: | In 2020, an archaeological survey was carried out in the town center of Chipa, Ninacaca district, department of Pasco, Peru, between 4400 and 3600 meters above sea level. The area protects an excellent archaeological territorial heritage composed of quilcas or cave paintings from Pintashmachay, a strategic point for llameros that started from the Ninacaca dairy farm, continued through Alcomarca and Pueblo Viejo, passed through Chipa and headed to Huachón, Huagurunchu and Guancabamba. The main objective is to propose the cultural sequence of the quilcas and their relative chronology, followed by describing and analyzing the paintings and inferring the functions that the site had. Our field methodology was to carry out the planimetric survey, drawing and photos of the quilcas. Through the comparative method of the quilcas, with the research background, we conclude that the site had 4 cultural periods: the naturalistic phase or phase I (6,000-3,000 BC), semi-naturalistic or phase II (3,000-1,800 BC), anthropomorphic or phase III (1,800 BC-100 AD) and geometric or phase IV (100 AD-1,000 AD), which corroborate the extensive evolution of pictorial art, explain the Andean religion of Huamanism and the use of camelids. Due to its excellent conservation, the site requires urgent protection and management that allows the tourist and economic development of this mountain region. |
