Sobre este episodio
After introducing the Inca Empire in the previous episode, we now trace back to the origin of ancient Peruvian civilization -- Norte Chico. You may not be very familiar with the civilization, but its cultural importance paralleled that of Olmecs for Mesoamerica and Sumerians for Mesopotamia. Archaeologists argued over the past years regarding the origin of Norte Chico, whether it was originated from the local fishing economy or agricultural system. You will hear a discussion of different theories on the topic and a reconciliation. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DHb5oI9KyDQLcTqk0SXQaXdNan9cIFjYNPJYXPpXGH8/edit?usp=sharing
