Abstract
This article discusses some of the work being done by the Upper Mantaro Archaeological Research Project (UMARP) in the Upper Mantaro Valley of Peru during the field periods of 1977-1980, 1982-1983, and 1986. Much of the study describes the geographical features of the area, with some limited archaeological data on site selection, surface collecting, and general excavation methods, but with little substantive information on the actual finds at the sites. Although the document purports to be a study of the Late Intermediate Period, which would include the pre-Inca Wanka I and II periods, much of the available information relates to Wanka III under Inca (Inka) rule.
