THE DEITY OF SKY: ONE WAY TO INTERPRET THE MOCHE ICONOGRAPHY THE DEITY OF SKY: ONE WAY TO INTERPRET THE MOCHE ICONOGRAPHY The Moche culture is one of the oldest and most problematic one in pre-Columbian Peruvian civilisations. Its central region was located in the valley of the Moche river on the northern coast not far from the today's city of Trujillo. As was characteristic to the more civilised cultures of the Peruvian coast the Mochicans lived in a few oases formed in the valleys of the coastal rivers. The oases were separated by a lifeless belt of desert, tens of kilometres wide. At the same time the valleys which are repeatedly flooded by rivers yield good harvest for their inhabitants, also, the sea is one of the most generous givers in the world.
