Very complex, we start to see formation of attribute cultures that come to an end. Second period of stylistic unification in the andes. Ad 600-1000 in ica; technically begins with drought in ad 562. A little out dated but still used today. Even after mh ends, modified continuations of the style persist. There are a lot of stylistic similarity not political social. Epoch 1a: new local style emerges in ayacucho ca. Development of very large urns with faces on them. All pots were brken in the same way. Menzel discovered that a new religion came from tiwanaku. When pots were brokrn they were broken in the same way. Even though paintings were the same the pots were not. Large ceremonial urns found only at large important sites.
