Cerro Trinidad, Archaeological site in Huaral Province, Peru.
The archaeological complex features a stepped pyramid with walls constructed from unworked stones supporting spherical adobe bricks and gravel in juxtaposed modules.
German archaeologist Max Uhle conducted excavations in 1904, revealing a 23-meter-long polychrome mural depicting interwoven fish patterns in four colors.
The ceramic remains found at the site represent two distinct styles: White-on-Red and Interlocking, named for its geometric fish decorations in 1926.
The site sits 58 kilometers northwest of Lima and can be accessed through local transportation services departing from the capital city.
Archaeological excavations at Cerro Trinidad established the chronological sequence between White-on-Red and Interlocking pottery styles during the Early Intermediate Period.
