description The Nasca area is the place of origin of innumerable archaeological examples that show the level of technical skill achieved by Prehispanic weavers. Although we now know much about the techniques involved in the manufacture of these items, however little is known about the way their production was organized. If our knowledge of the production of fine textiles is limited, we know next to nothing about the production and distribution of common utilitarian textiles, and the role they played in the domestic economies of these people. This paper aims to contribute with information on domestic textile production for the Late Prehispanic occupation of the Nasca region (1100-1470 AD/1470-1532 AD). Based on materials derived from archaeological excavations at Huayuri, a Late Prehispanic settlement located in the northern part of the Rio Grande de Nazca Drainage (Ica, Peru), an attempt is made to reconstruct the chain of textile production associated to three residential units. The aim is to understand what was produced on site and the role of individual households in the overall production.
