 The economy of the Uran Chancas was based primarily on agricultural crops and animals.They grew various Andean cultivated plants, in different ecological zones, and raised and shepherded llamas, vicuna, alpacas and guanacos, in herds of appreciable size, which were managed from towns with special provisions to control them and feed them while they provided wool and meat.Generally the ceramics were flat with a rough surface, and sometimes with a red diluted slip.
