Sumario: Kuntur Wasi Ceramics and the Chavín ProblemThe archaeological investigations at the formative site of Kuntur Wasi since 1988 conducted by the Tokyo University Archaeological Mission led to new and relevant data concerning sequences of ceremonial structures, lithic sculpture and gold ornaments from special tombs. The site's chronology based on typological ceramics analysis is presented. With the support of the radiocarbon dates it is sustained that the significant changes in the second Kultur Wasi phase are not due to the acceptance of the "Chavin Cult" or the distribution of "Janabarriu-related ceramics" but to the arrival of people of the Cupisnique culture from the northern coast. The changes in the highland temples like Kuntur Wasi and Chavin de Huantar are results of the abandonment at about 800 to 700 B.C.
