Killke and Killke-Related Pottery from Cuzco, Peru, in the Field Museum of Natural History by Brian S. Bauer and Charles Stanish
Abstract
This paper describes and illustrates an unusually
large collection of Killke and Killke-related pottery vessels from the Field Museum of Natural
History, Chicago. As the immediate antecedent to
classic Inca pottery, Killke pottery holds a unique
and important position in the cultural history of
the Cuzco area. An adequate definition of this style
is essential for constructing and testing models of
early Inca state development. This paper will: (1)
provide a summary of previous research on Killke
pottery, (2) place the Field Museum collection in
historical context, and (3) describe the 1 7 full-sized
Killke and Killke-related vessels, utilizing the ty-
pology first suggested by John H. Rowe for early
Inca materials from Cuzco. Source:
