介绍（中）	在瓦里的影响减弱后，太平洋沿岸出现了几种陶瓷风格，强调大规模生产以及模具和邮票的制造使用。在利马北部的山谷中，Chancay人生产的陶瓷在形式和装饰上都非常独特。这些陶瓷主要涂成深棕黑和白色，与许多早期和当代风格相比，这些陶瓷显得邋遢。然而，装饰的自发性、内敛的配色方案和经常大胆的绘画为Chancay商品增添了相当大的魅力。除了器皿，Chancay陶艺家还制作了人类和动物的陶瓷雕塑。人物形象，通常是明确的男女对，最初必须穿衣服。这两个可以在相同的基本模具中制作，并手工添加特定的解剖和装饰细节。两个人物都戴着相同的圆形耳饰——女性的耳饰更大——但头饰不同。男性形象戴的角尖帽子暗示了瓦里的影响，因为这种帽子是瓦里服装的典型代表。古代雕塑的功能不得而知。也许他们被放置在坟墓中作为死者的同伴或监护人。
介绍（英）	After the influence of Wari waned, several ceramic styles evolved on the Pacific coast that emphasized mass production and the fabricating use of molds and stamps. In the valleys north of Lima, the Chancay people produced ceramics that are very distinctive in form and decoration. Painted predominantly in dark brown-black on white, the ceramics appear sloppy by comparison with many earlier and contemporary styles. However, the spontaneity of the decoration, the restrained color scheme, and the often bold painting lend the Chancay wares considerable charm. In addition to vessels, Chancay potters produced ceramic sculptures of humans and animals. Human figures, often made in explicitly male-female pairs, originally must have worn clothing. These two could have been made in the same basic mold with specific anatomical and decorative details added by hand. Both figures wear the same round ear ornaments—those of the female are bigger—but different headdresses. The corner-pointed hat worn by the male figure implies Wari influence since such hats were typical of Wari costume. The function of the sculptures in ancient times is not known. Perhaps they were placed in tombs as companions or guardians of the dead.
