CHILCHOS VALLEY REVISITED, THE/REDESCUBRIENDO EL VALLE DE LOS CHILCHOS. Life Conditions in the Ceja de Selva, Peru/Condiciones de vida en la Ceja de Selva, Peru

Denmark 2005. This book attempts to describe and understand how human activities have changed the landscape in the montane forest (in the Chilchos valley in the northeastern slopes of the Andes in Peru) in the last 500 years. The Chilchos valley was inhabited with the Chachapoya and Inca cultures in pre-hispanic times. After a drastic decline in population in the colonial period, the valley was forgotten. Within the state of rediscovering the valley in the 1900s, new socio-cultural processes of adaptation to the environment began with migrations from the Sierra.
