This suggests<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/ancient-peru-cultures-before-the-inca-empire-part-ii\/\" title=\"\"> pre-Inca cultures<\/a><\/strong>, such as the Moche and Chim\u00fa, used these vessels frequently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These cultures were well-known for their ceramics. The Tiahuanaco culture helped to further define the unique imagery seen on these wonderful vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Historical Context and Timeline<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As we said before, the kero predates the Inca, with evidence suggesting its use for hundreds of years before the empire\u2019s rise in the 15th century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ancient Peruvians employed the kero across the Central Andean region, from northern Peru to northeastern Bolivia, for consuming chicha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Starting around the 15th century, they became state-controlled, with uniform designs like geometric shapes (squares, triangles, diamonds).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;During Inca times, production became state-controlled, ensuring uniformity in size and decoration, with an estimated peak in the 16th and 17th centuries, extending into the colonial period.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They were often used in pairs because the Inca custom required two people to drink together, like a ritual handshake. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These toasts helped seal political alliances, with keros given as gifts to provincial leaders, showing Inca generosity and power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rituals and Chicha Production<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keros were central to ceremonies, like the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/2024-inti-raymi-overview-and-tips-for-participating-in-2025\/\"><strong>Inti Raymi<\/strong><\/a> festival honoring the Sun God Inti. Communities, especially women called acllakuna, brewed chicha, made from fermented maize and sometimes fruits, and acted as the Incas\u2019 sacred brewers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes, keros were ritually shattered and buried, maybe to honor the gods, and their designs\u2014jaguars, birds, flowers\u2014told stories of Andean myths.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"697\" height=\"342\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Vaso-de-chicha-de-Jora-1.webp?resize=697%2C342&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Chicha de jora glass\" class=\"wp-image-12367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Vaso-de-chicha-de-Jora-1.webp?w=815&amp;ssl=1 815w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Vaso-de-chicha-de-Jora-1.webp?resize=300%2C147&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Vaso-de-chicha-de-Jora-1.webp?resize=768%2C377&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 697px) 100vw, 697px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>A glass of<em> chicha de jora<\/em><\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s cool is keros isn\u2019t just history\u2014they\u2019re still used today in Peru for religious festivals, showing how traditions stick around.

When made of gold or silver, they were termed aquillas, reserved for elite contexts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The largest examples, produced by earlier <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/ancient-peru-cultures-before-the-inca-empire-part-i\/\" title=\"\">pre-Inca cultures <\/a><\/strong>like Lambayeque (ca. 700\u20131375) and Chim\u00fa (ca. 1000\u20131470), could hold nearly 62 fluid ounces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dimensions were relatively uniform, with an average height of 20 to 22 cm, though specific examples, like one at Cusco\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/destinations\/cusco\/museums-galleries\/inca-museum\"><strong>Inca Museum<\/strong><\/a>, measured 28 cm.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Craftsmanship involved incised lines forming geometric motifs\u2014squares, triangles, diamonds\u2014in two to four horizontal registers, with colonial keros often featuring inlays of lacquers and colorants like cinnabar, orpiment, cochineal, and lead white, sometimes imported from Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some keros were uniquely shaped, like human heads or animals, adding a sculptural element. For instance, an artist shaped one in the Menil Collection like a human head and painted it with three horizontal bands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Possibly, it represented the Anti or Chuncho people, with deteriorated back registers showing figures with heraldic banners and floral elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Cultural Significance and Ceremonial Use<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keros had a very important cultural role: They were more than just vessels, helping people connect socially, politically, and spiritually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During ceremonies, it was customary for two individuals to drink together, often using pairs or sets of keros.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"697\" height=\"465\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/38185662694_89eb2ec573_o.jpg?resize=697%2C465&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/38185662694_89eb2ec573_o.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/38185662694_89eb2ec573_o.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/38185662694_89eb2ec573_o.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/38185662694_89eb2ec573_o.jpg?resize=330%2C220&amp;ssl=1 330w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/38185662694_89eb2ec573_o.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 697px) 100vw, 697px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>This tradition was both social and political. Leaders received keros and fine textiles as gifts, which showed the generosity of the Inca and helped strengthen state control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, during toasts, presenters held the keros at their waists and bottoms. This action partially hid the lower images, and only the upper designs showed. These often featured frontal faces in a linear, geometric style,&nbsp; typical of Inca art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Designs and Patterns<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Acllakuna, or sequestered women, were particularly responsible for brewing chicha for elite ceremonies. Archaeological discoveries, such as a chicha brewery at Cerro Ba\u00fal complete with colorful ceramic keros, emphasize its importance in rituals, ceremonies, and more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some keros were even ritually broken and buried, as seen at Cerro Ba\u00fal (ca. 600\u20131000) during the Wari Empire. This practice might have been a way to honor deities or mark important events.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"697\" height=\"697\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/60808304_10156987271666047_4547219061825601536_n.jpg?resize=697%2C697&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Another closer look to kero cups\" class=\"wp-image-13778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/60808304_10156987271666047_4547219061825601536_n.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/60808304_10156987271666047_4547219061825601536_n.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/60808304_10156987271666047_4547219061825601536_n.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/60808304_10156987271666047_4547219061825601536_n.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/60808304_10156987271666047_4547219061825601536_n.jpg?w=1500&amp;ssl=1 1500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/60808304_10156987271666047_4547219061825601536_n.jpg?w=1394&amp;ssl=1 1394w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 697px) 100vw, 697px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The designs on keros tell stories from Andean<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.viajesmachupicchu.travel\/en\/inca-mythology-gods-and-traditions-of-an-ancient-empire\/\"><strong> mythology.<\/strong><\/a> They often feature jaguars, birds, the kantu flower, and figures in capes or headdresses that represent dances.
