This investigation is about the "Marcavilca Complex", the cultural occupation process identified in the southern slope of the Morro Solar, in the district of Chorrillos, situated in the southern part of Lima, the Peruvian capital. Based on the archeological evidences we have found, a cyclical mobility is proposed for the early populations of the Morro Solar, as a subsistence strategy used by this archaic fishermencultivators which exploited the resources of the shore and nearby valleys, establishing a complementary economy. This strategy permits us to define an occupation model of this territory, the Peruvian central coast, that corresponds to the Archaic Period (10,000 a 3,500 bP), characterized by the domestication of plants and animals in the Central Andes.
