秘鲁南部的莫克瓜山谷是安第斯山脉中部国家（公元600-1000年）蒂瓦纳库和瓦里同时占据的唯一地方，对了解两国之间的关系至关重要。对山谷中Tiwanaku和Wari陶瓷的视觉研究阐明了形式和装饰的差异。原始粘土的采购是这些陶瓷生产的核心，了解人们在哪里购买粘土可以深入了解这两个国家之间的社会和经济互动。对莫克瓜山谷的调查表明，原粘土的供应量很大。粘土的激光烧蚀电感耦合等离子体质谱（LA-ICP-MS）分析结果表明，山谷粘土的化学特征存在异质性，并且至少可以区分五种不同的粘土组。这些粘土与Tiwanaku遗址和Wari遗址陶瓷的LA‐ICP‐MS分析的比较表明，尽管莫克瓜的Tiwanaku和Wari殖民者在中地平线期间使用了当地可用的粘土，但来自每个州的陶工开采的粘土来源不同，并且来自各自的中部和上部山谷地区。这些信息为今后对莫克瓜山谷的陶瓷进行化学分析提供了基础，并提高了对过去社会和经济互动的理解。© 2009 Wiley Periodicals，Inc.
As the only place simultaneously occupied by the Middle Horizon (A.D. 600–1000) Andean states, the Tiwanaku and the Wari, the Moquegua Valley in southern Peru is of critical importance to understanding relations between the two states. Visual studies of Tiwanaku and Wari ceramics in the valley have elucidated differences in form and decoration. The procurement of raw clays was central to the production of these ceramics, and understanding where people procured their clay may provide insight into the social and economic interactions between these two states. Survey of the Moquegua Valley indicates the extensive availability of raw clays. Results of laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) analyses of clays indicate that there is heterogeneity in the chemical signature of the valley's clays and that at least five different clay groups can be distinguished. Comparison of these clays with LA‐ICP‐MS analysis of ceramics from a Tiwanaku site and a Wari site demonstrates that although Tiwanaku and Wari colonists in Moquegua used locally available clays during the Middle Horizon, the clay sources exploited by potters from each state were different and derived from areas located within their respective middle and upper valley territories. This information provides a basis for future chemical analysis of ceramics from the Moquegua Valley and improved understanding of past social and economic interactions. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
