    • Abstract:
      For a long time, the Virú-Gallinazo populations were considered as the predecessors of the Mochicas, when recent investigationstend to show that they both coexisted during the Early Intermediate Period (200 B.C.-600 A.D.) on theNorthern Coast of Peru. The systematic use of typology to define ancient cultures explains in great part this confusion. Theresearch presented aim to define the cultural filiations of these two groups, by a comparison of their ceramic productionmodes. In this context, we use ceramic technology to define technical traditions associated to social groups. This methodologyconsists in the study of ceramic manufacture, by analyzing surface features at a macroscopic and microscopic scale,on the surfaces and sections. This methodology was applied on 4212 ceramics from five collections. These analyses leadto the identification of three technical traditions: the hammering associated to the Virú-Gallinazo ceramic productionand the coiling and molding for the Mochica production context. It then appears that the Virú-Gallinazo and Mochicapopulations didn’t belong to the same community of practice, but still maintained frequent contacts. Ceramic technologythen represents a powerful approach to go beyond typological and stylistic descriptions in order to define cultural filiations. ; Durante largo tiempo, los grupos Virú-Gallinazo fueron considerados como los predecesores de los mochica, aunquerecientes investigaciones tienden a demostrar que coexistieron durante el Período Intermedio Temprano (200 a.C.-600d.C.) en la Costa Norte del Perú. El uso sistemático de la tipología cerámica para definir las culturas pasadas explica engran parte esta confusión. Las presentes investigaciones tienen como objetivo la definición de las filiaciones culturales entreambos grupos, por una comparación de sus modos de producción cerámica.
