Sumario: Pikillacta, Huaro and the Greater Cuzco Region: New Interpretations of Wari Occupation in the Southern HighlandsOver the last two decades, significant advancements have been made in Wari studies, resulting primarily from investigations conducted in provincial regions that have elucidated new perspectives on Wari imperial expansion. This paper focuses on contributions made in the southern highlands Cuzco region, with particular emphasis on research carried out at the monumental sites of Pikillacta and Huaro. On the basis of their research, the authors offer a new interpretation of the Wari occupation of Cuzco, that it was earlier; more intense, and endured much longer than previously thought, and that the mechanism for its success was direct Wari imperial control.
