Of all the ancient civilizations that flourished in the Americas, only one perfected true portraiture of living people and produced it in quantity - the Moche who inhabited the north coast of Peru between approximately AD 100 and 800. This title shows how the portrait tradition evolved and how the portraits were produced and distributed.
