Evidence of Female Power Uncovered in Ancient Peru

New findings at an ancient site in Peru suggest that women may have held ruling positions in the Moche civilisation over 1,300 years ago

New discoveries in Peru are shedding light on the influential roles women held in the ancient Moche civilisation along the country’s northwestern coast. 

At the Panamarca archaeological site, a columned chamber with a weathered stone throne and vibrant murals was unearthed, revealing a powerful scene: a crowned woman seated on the throne, surrounded by lunar and oceanic symbols, welcoming visitors. 

Estimated to be over 1,300 years old, this imagery suggests that women may have once ruled here. “A queen’s throne room of this kind has never been seen at Panamarca, or anywhere in ancient Peru,” the excavation team confirmed.

These insights add a new dimension to our understanding of the Moche civilisation’s social structure, hinting at a matriarchal legacy that preceded the later Inca Empire in the region.
