Jama-Coaque
(350 a.C. – 1532 d.C.)

This culture extended over northern Manabí and inhabited an environment characterized by wooded hills close to the beach. The power was held by a wealthy and powerful minority. Like neighbouring ethnic groups, the people of Jama-Coaque culture practiced a terrestrial and maritime long-distance trade.

The culture and religious core was the ceremonial center of San Isidro, where several temples were constructed on a huge pyramid surrounded by a large city.
The skill of Jama-Coaque potters is evidenced primarily by the manufacture of fine human figures represented as doing certain tasks and offices Of equal peculiarity and beauty are the ceremonial figure. The attire shows the existence of a flourishing textil industry.
