סיכום:The archaeological project titled A Chronology of the Use of Marine Resources in Ancient Peru was designed by Dr. Josefina Ramos Cox (d. 1974), and its principal aim was to relate the measurement of time with socio-economic activities of the people of coastal Peru during four thousand years. This interest arose in 1964 when the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru began excavating the Huaca Tres Palos-Fundo Pando (in the Rimac Valley), which revealed a group of 96 ceremonial pits related to astronomical observation, which form the upper platform. During the search for comparative data, it was possible to find references to astronomical observations of the Incas in chronicles of the 16th and 17th centuries, and various statements concerning pre-Inca astronomy in archaeological literature
