Crown A.D. 900-1100 Lambayeque (Sicán) Cylindrical crowns that taper gently in the middle were common in high-status tombs at Batán Grande, a site now called the Sicán Archaeological Precinct, in the Santuario Histórico Bosque de Pómac, about 40 kilometers northeast of the modern city of Chiclayo on Perus North Coast.

The ends of the sheet were joined by metal lacing, as if it were a cloth.
