介绍（中）	与海岸上的莫切人（Moche people）同时代，雷夸伊人（Recuay）居住在安第斯山脉中北部的瓦伊拉斯湖（Callejón de Huaylas）周围的高地。他们在大约公元前1200年至公元800年期间蓬勃发展，制作了与众不同的陶瓷和石雕，上面装饰着统治者和超自然生物的形象，显然与Recuay宇宙学有关。这些图像中最著名的是所谓的月亮动物或月亮怪物，一种狐狸或猫科动物，长着长而有齿的鼻子和头顶。这种生物经常被描绘在精致的Recuay陶瓷上。Recuay陶瓷通常由白色高岭土状粘土制成，并用抗蚀剂或负片图案进行装饰，如本例所示，Recuay陶器展现出相当迷人的形象。月亮动物在剖面图中描绘的每个房间中出现两次，有着圆圆的大眼睛、大爪子和卷曲的尾巴。从它的头顶延伸出一个弯曲的附肢。其中一个房间有一个喇叭形的喷口，另一个房间的顶部是一只自然造型的啮齿动物，可能是一只老鼠。抗蚀剂绘画在安第斯山脉被广泛使用，但在Recuay的例子上却异常精细。通常用红色防滑漆进一步加强，如图所示。
介绍（英）	Contemporary with the Moche peoples on the coast, those of Recuay were in the highlands around the Callejón de Huaylas in the north-central Andes. They flourished from about 1200 B.C. to 800 A.D., producing distinctive ceramics and stone sculptures decorated with images of rulers and supernatural creatures apparently related to Recuay cosmology. One of the best known of these images is the so-called moon animal or moon monster, a foxlike or feline animal with a long, toothy snout and head crest. The creature is frequently depicted on fine Recuay ceramics. Often made of white kaolin-like clay and decorated by resist, or negative, patterns, as is this example, Recuay ceramics exhibit quite engaging imagery. The moon animal appears twice on each chamber depicted in profile, with big round eyes, large clawed paws, and a curled tail. From the top of its head extends a curved appendage. One of the chambers has a flared spout, the other is topped by a naturalistically modeled rodent, probably a mouse. Resist painting was widely used throughout the Andes, but it is exceptionally elaborate on Recuay examples. It is often further enhanced with red slip paint, as here.
