The Tiwanaku culture is one of the most important during the
period before America was been uncovered. Because near to three
thousand years (2800 years) Tiwanaku achieved important
progress about science, art, architecture and agriculture.
According to excavations made by the National Direction of
Archeology and Antropology , the Tiwanaku culture is divided in
three periods: Village from 1500 year before Christ to 45
year after Christ; the classic urban from 45 year after Christ
to 700 year after Christ; and the Expansive period from 700 year
after Christ to 1200 year after Christ.
With
simple lines in the designs, Tiwanaku architects built big
temples; the Tiwanaku engineer built superficial network and
underground channels to eliminate drain water.
Tiwanaku had clever rock worker. The metallurgists covered
the monument faces with gold. The wise people oriented
astronomically the temples with good precision.
The
most important structures are: Pumapunku, Kalasasaya temple,
Underground temple, Akapana pyramid, Kerikala and Putuni.
The
underground temple has Tiwanaku people and puma heads nailed on
the visible wall.
The
main entrance to the Kasasaya temple causes big impression.
According to the research, the Akapana pyramid is estimated as
the second most big one on the world. The first one most
big is Keops pyramid in Egypt. Akapana pyramid is built in
the Tiwanaku culture.
The
high stoop in 7 levels on the plant and rock walls worked in
sandy rock. The Akapana pyramid has 182 meters wide, 194
meters long and 18 meters high, on an area of 2800 squared
meters.
Tiwanaku
is known by the monolitos and the sun door.
The
Ponce monolito has been uncovered the 8th November of 1957 into
the excavation unity H-13, in the court-in of Kalasasaya, at 210
centimeters deep.
It signifies the Tiwanaku divinized authority. It is carved in
gray andesita rock. It measures 3 meters high and 79 centimeters
maximal wide and 54 centimeter thick. The Tiwanaku statues
are the most important of Tiwanaku sculpture. The name Ponce is
homage to Dr.
Carlos Ponce Sanjinés, the uncover.
The
Fraile monolito is similar to catholic priest. It is
located near to the south-west corner of Kalasasaya. It
means a dressed man with a head band, mask and brings a keru
coup and a reign --symbol of double power-- visible
between the fold finger of the right hand.
The Bennett
monolito is the bigest statue, sculpted in red sandy rock, has
730 centimeters high, included 180 centimeter base and 127
centimeters maximal wide. It has been uncovered by Bennett in
the hole VII near to the center of the underground temple.
The original position of this sculpture was oriented toward the
south, that means to the high stoop, entrance to the underground
temple.
The 8th
July 1933, Bennet monolito is translated by train to Prado
avenue, in the La Paz city center. The years 1940's a copy
of Bennet monolito is translated to underground temple of
Miraflores, in La Paz city center. Now the Bennet statue
is in Tiwanaku, its original place.
The sun door
represents the State boss divinized. The man-God, who
mixes the power and unifies the three cosmic spaces. The sun
door is the most important representation of Tiwanaku culture.
It does not means the sun, as the general people believe.
THEN,
PURCHASE TIWANAKU OBJECTS MEANS TO HAVE A PART OF AN OLD
CULTURE, THUS TO HAVE ORNAMENTATION AND USEFUL OBJECTS. |
