Pampa de Cueva, Pre-Columbian archaeological site in Independencia, Peru
The archaeological complex contains a primary pyramid structure positioned between José Martín Street, América Avenue, Tupac Amaru Avenue, and Micaela Bastidas Street.
Archaeological investigations in 1962 revealed monochrome ceramics with incised Chavín-style designs within multiple layers of ancient debris at the pyramid site.
The ceremonial center follows a U-shaped architectural pattern oriented towards the east, connecting with other major sites like Garagay and La Florida.
Access to Pampa de Cueva is available through Primary School N° 3050 El Morro, located approximately 30 meters from Kilometer 5 of Tupac Amaru Avenue.
The site's location at the convergence of Rímac and Chillón river basins created geographical conditions that preserved archaeological materials for centuries.
