Nine Feathered Panels A.D. 600-900 Wari In 1943 a cache of ninety-six feather panels was found in the Churunga Valley. The panels had been rolled up and placed in ceramic jars that were then buried at a ceremonial center. Each panel is densely covered with tens of thousands of feathers, primarily from the blue-and-yellow macaw, which lives in the Amazonian rainforest. The feathers were individually hand-knotted onto cotton strings and then stitched onto plain-weave cotton panels. These panels, nine of which are shown here, may have once adorned the walls of a building.En 1943 fue encontrado un grupo importante de aproximadamente noventa y seis paneles de plumas en el valle de Churunga, en la costa Sur de Perú.
