About
My scholarly interests center on the development of complex societies in the Americas and the dynamics of the European-American contact period. My research explores the emergence of social inequalities, integrating archaeological data—both survey and excavation—with historical sources, including classic chronicles and archival documents. I am best known for my archaeological work in the Cuzco region and my research on the Inca and Wari Empires.
