Pachacamac
200 西暦 – 1533 西暦
The most important pilgrimage and oracle centre on the pre-Hispanic Peruvian coast — a sprawling city of temples and pyramids on the shores of the Pacific south of Lima, built up over thirteen centuries by successive cultures who all recognised its central deity, Pachacamac, as a supreme creator god. So powerful was Pachacamac's religious authority that the Inca, upon conquering the region, chose to incorporate rather than suppress its cult, building their own Temple of the Sun directly alongside the older oracle.
