    "While much attention has been paid to the murals that display scenes of everyday life, as well as elaborate sacrificial rituals, relatively few scholarly studies have investigated the subset of Moche ceramics that portray deities, skeletons, humans, and animals, engaged in a wide variety of sexual acts. However, they may in fact represent the most detailed account of sexual customs ever left by ancient people.."
    The main language of the Andean people is Quenhuan. 
Prior to the Pre-Columbian (Pre-Hispanic) period of Peru, ceremonial pottery was buried with the dead. 
From the Quechua word "huaca" (meaning holy burial site), Peruvians now call the ancient ceramics found therein "huacos".
