The content of Chimú culture was merged into Chimor on 9 August 2021. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see its talk page.

Merge with Chimu culture?

Latest comment: 2 years ago6 comments4 people in discussion

I don't see a reason not to merge this page with that of the Chimu culture. This page is a stub because all the information that would be put here is on the other page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Last edited by: (talk • contribs) 00:32, 14 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

I would also agree that this needs merging with Chimu culture, none of this information requires a separate page and can easily be included in the suggested page.Grnrchst (talk) 16:05, 11 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Support merge, but Chimor seems like the broader topic, so I argue that the merge should be to that page, despite that fact that it is currently shorter. Klbrain (talk) 13:22, 26 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Klbrain: I think this was a mistake. There is a difference between the empire and the people, the civilization. On Fr.wiki and es.wiki there are two sepereate articles for Inca civilization and the Inca empire. I think we should move anything like society, culture, and architecture in this article to Chimu culture, making this article about the historic-military entity.

If you look back at the pre-merge page you'll see that there is very little that isn't culture. Fr.wiki and es.wiki are welcome to make different decisions. While there has been expansion over the last 2.5 years, much of it also seems to be culture. So, my view is still that discussing the empire and its culture, as interdependent topics, works. If you feel differently, feel free to propose a WP:SPLIT. Klbrain (talk) 19:20, 13 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sources for the information in the Ceramics section?

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

In the section on ceramics there are some claims that early Chimú pottery had some similarities to that of Moche potter. Can anyone find a source to this claim? Lord Phoebos (talk) 19:13, 14 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Introduction

Latest comment: 2 months ago2 comments1 person in discussion

In the intro, this article states “encompassing 1000 km” but that is not an area measurement. What is the area that this empire encompassed? Amocito0113 (talk) 04:01, 14 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

I appreciate that it says “of coastline” but this is a meaningless metric Amocito0113 (talk) 04:03, 14 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
