Revash

Revash is an archaeological site of the Chachapoya culture in the Amazonas region of northern Peru, with funerary buildings set into a cliff face. The small house-like tombs, built of stone and mud mortar and painted in red and cream, held collective burials. They date mainly from the centuries before the Inca conquest of the region in the late 15th century.
