While divinities appear in the images, the lords already represent themselves to society as descendents of divinity “x” or divinity “y”, then power is legitimated in such way after the idea of a paramount past, where social differentiation and work division is configured. That is why this paramount order is remarked, and also because it justifies the current differentiation and the role that diverse society subgroups have in the perpetuation of order. Is basically an idea that moche people must have had as an extraordinary way of thinking, and since they had to interrelate with diverse social groups, coordination was imperative in order to rightfully produce the future. Yet, the sense of moche rites is to organize the production of the future through social interaction.
