Abstract
In this thesis I will show that despite looted contexts, valuable information can be gained in archaeological research. I will also prove that the above-ground tombs at the site of La Tiza, Peru are a Middle Horizon development, as influenced by the highland Wari state conquering the Nasca drainage.
