Title: THE ROLE OF EARLY AGRICULTURE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ANDEAN MONUMENTALITY, A VIEW FROM THE CHAO VALLEY Abstract: In Andean archaeology the construction of the first monumental buildings in the Late Preceramic Period (5800-3600 cal. BP) is related to the formation of complex societies and the beginning of the civilization process. A central topic in the study of early Andean monumentality is the characterization of the economic strategies and subsistence economies developed by coastal communities. Within this context, we present the botanical evidence from archaeological excavations of three preceramic sites of the Chao Valley and discuss the relationship between economy, social strategies, and communal activities.
