Ep. 27: The Chimú

Late in the 15th century, there was an empire on the Northern coast of modern-day Peru: The Chimor Empire. The Chimu made their home in the Moche Valley, the culture who had inhabited the area over 500yrs prior. On the dry western coast of the continent, the Chimu were able to create a thriving empire that controlled trade and made exquisite works of gold. If it hadn’t been for a certain Inca who was coming down from the Andes, it is possible that this podcast would have a different title.
