Abstract
The Formative Period burial pattern in Bolivia (1500 BC–200 AD) has not been adequately investigated. Whereas the South-eastern valleys show cemeteries mainly with burials of individuals in extended posi- tion, in the highlands (altiplano) settlement burials with individuals in flexed position predominate. In the Cochabamba Valleys we find a more variable pattern including both types. This underlines the importance of the geographical corridor formed by the Cocha- bamba valleys as a preferred settlement area also for external groups. Most interesting are burials that were placed in possible storage pits, which indicate a spatial relationship between the dead and the domestic area in the settlement, thus conveying the religious percep- tion of continuous interaction between groups of the dead and the living.
