• Resumen

  • Exploration of a group of Early Horizon platforms by quadrat in Peru made contact with a midden, rich in artefacts and faunal remains. Was this the result of discard from an elite residence, or deposits of �ceremonial trash� emanating from ritual performance? The author shows how this question may be decided, even through the analysis of a single small sample.
