As I hope to demonstrate, however, our current knov'ledge of pre-Hispanic Tiwanaku iconographli including its antecedents in the l\tiddle and Late Formative Periods, no longer supports this hypothesis. The representational conventions for frontal and profile figures, with staffs and with rayed halos around their faces, were employed to portrav gre t repertoire ^ of deities in their various hierarchical relations. Tiwanaku conr.'entions can be compared to those of iike the saints in thc¡se traditions, the most important Tiwanaku deiues were represented frontally, with paleo-Christian or Byzantine iconography Much tracks, and scepters. These designs appear separateh-, in texrile and ceramics, and as independent motits, studring üem in those contests rer-eals the sarious of the frontallv portrar-ed supernatural be- identities ings. The same is t¡ue for the prohle deities, rvhich Dorothy Menzel (1,964, 197T compares to angels. The reliefs on rhe Gatewal. of üe Sun represent only a small percentage of the supernatural beings that formed the rich and varied Tiwanaku pantheon. The Staff God Theme Revisited Among the images that make up the figurative legacv of the pre-Hispanic Andes, the stulptural decoration of Tiwanaku's Gatewal, of the Sun (fig. 1) is perhaps the most popular and widely known. Drawings and photographs of it began to circulate in the second half of the nineteenth century, thanks to the publihalos surrounding their faces, and they all resembled cations of Chades Wiener (1880), Ephraim Squier one another.

Indeed, the u,.ings and tail cannot be seen in frontal view; onlv rvhen the statue is rotated do they become apparent. Except for this one case, Pucara reliefs and textiles represent the face of the staff god, rvith its characteristic halo of rays (Chávez 2004), in preference to full-bodv images. In sum, the repertoire of formative antecedents (Pucara, Siguas, Tiwznaku III, and Qeva) to Tiwanaku iconographv is surprisinglv rich. It includes conventions for representing human beings frontally, in profile, running, walking, and flying (stretched out hodzontalTy, face down), full body or head onl¡ as well as most of the iconographic details from which mythic identities were probably se¡511us¡sd-¡amely, figurative feathers forming the crown, componeflts also contains figures of of staffs, and so on.

Only two of these have parallels in the iconographv of the Gatewav of the Sun: the principal deiw rep- tesented in full bodv or as a frontal face and one the three tlpes of of attendants rvith visible wings. The rest, such as the sacrificer and the anthropomorphic attendant with a feüne face, are represented only in reliefs that decorate iintels and garments of the monoüthic statues of human officiants. What is even more surprising about this repertoire is that the varier¡'of images casts doubt on the existence not only of the "theme of a central deity or staff god" but also on the existence of a single main deity. Remember that Xfenzel's hrpothesis was inspired b,v the relations between the anthropomorphic figures in üe Gatesav of üe Sun's principaTftieze: . The central figure is larger than the others; it is the onlt'one atop a stepped structure; it has two staffs, one in each hand, and lacks wings. . The remaining three fantastic beings ate repeated several times, in profrle and with wings; These characteristics become exceptional ra light of the formative evidence, and also in corr.id- of reliefs attributed to the initial phases 'T-rwanaku II! and the eady phase of classical Tis-an*u eration I\f (fiwanaku , such as the Bennett monoüth. The formative repertoire includes several staff deidessometimes represented side by side (nameh-, on the "Gateway Tunic" [Young-Sánchez 2004, ñg. 2-26] and the Bennett and Pachacamac monoliths [figs. 611cl) and at the same size, as blt with clear diffe¡ences to the characteristics of the crown, the venical objects held in the hands, clothing details, and the stepped structures over which they appear. \\ ings are not an exclusive attribute of figrrres in proñle (as the Pucara staff god shows), nor is the frontal pose an exclusive tritt of a male staff deity (as the Pucara female deity proves lChávez 2004,911). Moteor-er, we know of compositions in relief and in tapestn- in which several ftontal deities with two staffs form processions, one beside another (namely, the Gateway Tunic fYoung-Sánchez 2004, f,g.2.26] and the Pachacamac monolith, which has deities in profrle but without wings and with two staffs, one in each hand [fig. 11c]). Finallli in some cases the processions are oriented toward the central figure (figs. 1a, 11c), while in others they are turned awal' from it (Bennett monol,ith, frg. 6); there may even be both directions in the same scene (Ponce monolith, fig. N. In the context outlined above, the empirical and theoretical bases for the central role traditionally assigned to the iconography disappear. It would of the Gateway of the Sun seem that the current literature on this topic still betrays the influence of romantic images conjured by nineteenth-century engravings and photographs: the monolithic gateway, like a Ro- man triumphal arch, emerges alone amid the ruins of the great plaza,wlich is almost completeiy buried bv earth and rubble. The reüefs stand out against the Andean sk¡ the sole and final testimony of a lost civilization that flourished in such an apparendy hostile environment, an almost implausible nodon '(ruouuur'¡ 'q :soroq¿) 'q '.^l3r '¿ 'glqouou¡ nauuag ';.'31¡ luorc Il¿q Jo Ir¿tac 'iu.r.rz lsapr.t 3qt tuqt ua.ogs sur{ rul¿u¿.ANII Jo sulnr aqt ]ú pu¿ urnasnur alrs eqt ur pa,rraserd erntdlnrs _1o sadb Jeqto qtl.lc' sf¿.¡o.alu8 ar{l Jo uosuedwo3 orlllv le/tou ¡o /(qder6ouocl or.ll 'tr sessyd¡ns fldure ql[ouow ]teuueg Wt-iooJ-tvz eq¡ '-(qdy#ouof,r slr Jo surJet w xaiduroc ]soru eql .rou rse8ryl erp rer{treu sr uns aq} Jo ,{y,natzg aql t¿qr s.{\ogs satnldprs f,rql[ouou 3ul.'u¡¡ns Jo erlo] -radar aqr qrr-t uosuydiuor aldtuls 1¡'sacuds uedo ul pelqwassr sapn]Dlnru rearS eql or ruatuor snor8r¡ar tuq¡odu¡Sulie¡uo¡ ueeq e Eq tou PInoJ roJ runrpeurlvnsl E s€ pepuetrn pu¿.4NopEqs uI ueaq e^¿q PInO.^A 'tuooJ Pere^or E Jarler eql uaqt 'esyc arp s¿,4d, ]vq] JI ro p.ruihrnoc paoonrod ¿ Jo JolJetrrt eqt ruo4 uees aq ol tuee{u s¿,¡¡. a8urur po8 33urs or{t qtüN Ilp.4A. eql tzqr 'purur dru or ,{ldun'l¡¿d ¡addn eqt uI s}uauela 8un¡oddns pur Suqcauuor Jo uorlrtrol eqt sE IIa.¡N sv'sazau3r snourq eqr arrsoddo eprs aqr uo sletu{ puu seqrru Jo uonnqrJtslp aql 'saceds pa3ooJ pue s¡y.ro.

Nonetheless, the location, orientation, and stratigraphic context documented in the profiles and in the published plans, as well as in atchival photographs (Bennett 1934; Ponce Sanginés 1964 [1990]), lend credence to the hlpothesis that the four monoliths originally stood at the center of the Semi-subterranean Templet sunken plaza.The fo:u were found aügned one next to another, with their bases near the center of the plaza and the upper extremities pointing north-northwest.

Personage Ala in the upper row ofthe Bennett seems to be indicated by the specific form of the figurative plume on their foreheads (cf. Gateway of the Sun, fig. 14b). The remaining rypes of plumes are shared by all the profile figures. By contrast, when supernatural beings are presented frontally, it is the combination of various plumes in the halo, rather than a single plume, that gives them their indiüdual personality and allows us to distinguish among similar dei_ ties. The iconographic context shows that the anthropomorphic beings whose halo was adorned by feline heads (Gateway of the Sun, figs. 14a, I2a) or by smiling faces (Bennen monoüth, figs. 6, 12b) rcp_ resented the most important gods. Each of them had a latge retinue made up of two to four anthropomorphic attendants poftrayed frontally and several more in profile, both humans and fantastic animals. 1.

Of course, it is not possible to decode the concrete meaning of the signs, since, with the exception of certain archaisms, the iconogaphy of Tiwanaku did not survive the demise of that culture, which took place berween A.D. 900 and 1100 (Kolata 1993a), thus probably pteceding the advance of the Aryara (Cerrón_ Palomino 2000).

(Iranslated by Rose Vekony) Of course, this does not suffice to prove that Viracocha was in fact chosen by the ruler portrayed in the Bennett monolith and that the Gateway of the Sun represents Punchao. I beüeve it is possible that the image and tales of the Tiwan¿ku and rJ7ad gods were partially preserved in memory, but in a version reinterpreted from the perspective of fout centuries of turbulent history. I likewise agree with Kolata (2003) that there are notable similarities between the structural principles of bi- and quadripartition that prevailed in the ceque system and the sacred geography of Cuzco, on the of Tiwanaku, on the other. Several principles find close parallels in Ayr.rra:a one hand, and of these as staffs; however, in the best-preserved fragment of the figure depicted barely skim of the panel. These edges consist of two the fingertips the edges to three vertical lines and a patallel border made of the stepped sign and spiral. In the case of the other fragment, not only is there no vertical up element resembling a staff, but also the feline does not even touch the edges of the panel, whose limits are discernible by the change of surface color. Both the sqrle and the iconography are cha¡acteristic of myhical beings in the Middle Horizon 3-4 and the Late Intermediate Period in the north-central coast from Pativilca and Supe to Ancón (see Carrión Cachot de Girard 1959, 13542,ñgs.713-14; Ugane Eléspuru 1999, pls. 2,3;Fiuliz Esttada 1999,pL7; JknénezBorja 1,999, pls. 9, 10). It seems probable these two gourds from the Late Preceramic Period (udging from the C-14 dates) wete found by chance at the end of the first millennium A.D. by residents of the Pativilca Valley in the middle of an ancient burial gtound thatwas disturbed as they üat dug new gtaves. The gourds they found were then decorated (drawings ftom the Middle Honzon34) and reused as offerings. Goutds from the Preceramic Period in the valleys of the Norte Chico tend to be excellendy preserved, and the pre-Hispanic of artifacts made from terracotta, gourds, or use bones recovered ftom the oldest graves has been ftequently documented. social organization (Albar nctn-J ordán n.d., 2003). Tripartition doubdess played an important role as an orgarizing principle. The sculptural decotation associated with three different architectonic forms-üe sunken pIaza, the plaza on top of the low platform, and the top of the stepped pyramidseems to indicate that the deities venerated in each of them had characteristics comparable, respectively, to the three Cuzco deities Viracocha (Thunupa: Kolata 2003,200), Apu Huanacauri, and Punchao.
