Sumario: This article presents the results of excavations carried out at the Formative Period site of Pallaucha, located south of Ayacucho, in the basin of the Pampas River. Until recently, Ayacucho was considered a minor area during the Formative Period; however, this idea could change thanks with the discovery of complex architecture associated to cultural materials coming from different area; one of them the South Coast. Three ceramic phases were identified during excavations at Pallaucha, which suggests a close relationship between this site and the South Coast. In this paper we describe the associated contexts.
