Sumario: In this paper we present the existence of Formative Period settlements and archaeological materials in a ravine near to the city of Lima, capital of Perú. Through comparatives analysis we have related these elements with data from others areas of Lima (Ancón, Huachipa, Tablada de Lurín, etc.), and we have reconstructed the early occupational landscape in this area of the Rímac Valley, and the use of the space and the settlement area in the lower zone that included different structures and a large worship zone that included a sanctuary in the upper ground.
