Mojeque, or Pampa de las Llamas-Moxeke, is a large archaeological site located in the Casma Province of Ancash Region in northern Peru. Archaeologists believe it functioned as a temple or religious structure.[1] It contains two large mounds, many smaller mounds, and multiple human figures and heads believes to depict deities or divine rulers.[1] Large crowds would gather at this site to observe and participate in rituals or ceremonies associated with the mounds.[1] It is only one of the large sites of the Casma/Sechin culture in the Casma and Sechin River valleys. The others are Cerro Sechin, Sechin Alto, and Sechin Bajo. The Sechin River is a tributary of the Casma River.
