This tomb in spite of its smaller dimensions contained the bones and an impressive amount of ornaments and symbols of rank that reflect equal hierarchy: the triple authority of the Mochicas Gentlemen of the Valley (military, nun and civilian). The body was surrounded in blankets of cotton and religious golden copper standards. Near the body 53 ornaments of gold recovered: necklaces, narigueras, orejeras and other, but it represents the miniaturist culture of a Mochica head soldier, admirably worked in gold and silver. A necklace of gold spiders and the golden copper images of a feline divinity and the “man-crab” or the pectoral one representing a squid, constitute deities of the Mochica religion and testimonies of their extraordinary art. In other rooms are a set of tombs that still continue being investigated. Tombs 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, exhibit all their ornaments which show personages of the dynasty of the Mochica culture with jewels of exquisite arts, metallurgical technology, and religious symbolism allowing us to reconstruct the social structure, religious thought and the level of technological development reached about moches. Ceramios found in the tombs with some foods within each one of them are a symbol for his long trip and expression to the tribute of beyond.
