Complejo Arqueologico Santa Luzmila, Pre-Hispanic archaeological site in Comas District, Peru.

The Santa Luzmila Archaeological Complex contained twenty-five eroded mounds with structures made of earth, adobe, and tapia, spread across 40 hectares of land.

The complex functioned as a substantial settlement connected to the U-shaped Temple of Infantas, Collique 2, Huaca Pro, and Cerro Pro during pre-Hispanic times.

The archaeological remains belonged to the Colli Culture, which established numerous settlements and administrative centers throughout the northern region of Lima.

The original structures of Santa Luzmila have been replaced by modern developments including soccer fields, houses, schools, and parks in the urban area.

Archaeological surveys revealed rectangular buildings of various sizes, measuring between 20 to 60 meters in length and 10 to 60 meters in width.
