Map Showing Location of the Chavín

This map shows the location of the Chavín culture, as well as the areas the Chavín influenced. 

The map shows the extent of the Chavín Civilization, which stretched along the Peruvian coast, from Cajamarca to the north to Pachacamac, an archaelogical site 40 km southeast of Lima, to the south. The map also shows the extent of Chavín influence, which stretched further north along the coast to the modern-day border of Peru and Ecuador and further south along the coast to Nazca.
