refimprove date January 2010 Much of the pre history of Peru has been wrapped up in where the farmable land was located. The most populated coastal regions of Peru are the two parallel mountain ranges and the series of 20 to 30 rivers running through the coastal desert. In dry periods only the mountains are wet enough for agriculture and the desert coast is empty, while in wet periods many cultures have thrived along the rivers of the coast. The well known Inca were a mountain based culture that expanded when the climate became more wet, often sending conquered peoples down from the mountains into unfarmed but farmable lowlands. In contrast, the Moche were a lowland culture that died out after a strong El Nino , which caused abnormally high rainfall and floods, which was followed by a long drought . ref name BBC Davidson, Nick http news.bbc.co.uk 2 hi science nature 4311153.stm Lost society ....
