RIVASPLATA VARILLAS, Paula Ermila. The pre-scientific archeology in Peru in the eighteenth century. Let. hist. [online]. 2015, n.13, pp.221-252. ISSN 2448-8372.

This article tries to investigate if the pre-scientific archaeology was developed in Perú in the 18th century. The method of study has been hermeneutic and heuristic. The result would indicate us that in the 18th century, pre-scientific archaeology was carried out almost entirely by illustrated Europeans who came to Peru, with the exception of the creole Michael Feijoo who by chance was the one that realized the first graphical representation of a stratigraphic “archaeological” cut on the north coast of Perú that can be recognized as such between 1763-1765 and that was announced through the bishop Baltasar Martínez Compañón.
