Preferred term

huari [wari]  

Definition

  • Huari represents one of the few civilizations that were actually lost from historic records only to be rediscovered by archaeologists centuries later. Since its rediscovery in the 1940s, it has become almost synonymous with the era known as the Middle Horizon (AD550–900), though deep excavations at several large sites suggest the civilization has roots as early as about AD 400.
