The piece has the characteristics of both Chancay and Chimu cultures. A local Peruvian archaeologist believes that this came as a result of trade between the Ichma- Curiosity #7 and both the Chancay and Chimu cultures. I continue researching the piece to try and pin down an exact culture that might have made this.
