Ceramic containers from the Late Horizon period in Peru

Ceramic containers from the Late Horizon period in Peru

It is a ceramic container made during the late horizon period in Peru (approximately 1470 to 1532). Not only is it a practical container, but it is also a symbol of art and culture. It usually has a unique shape and decoration that reflects the aesthetic and religious beliefs of the society at that time. In 2022, a ceramic container voluntarily returned from France was received by the Association of Friends of Heritage. This voluntary return behavior reflects respect and protection for cultural heritage, and also demonstrates the international community's emphasis on the return of cultural relics and the protection of cultural property. It holds an important position in the pre Columbian culture of Peru, showcasing the ceramic making techniques of that time.
