Answer:

C. Archaeologists found carvings and statues of animal forms with human features in the Old Temple at Chavin de Huantar

Explanation:

It is believed that Chavin was raised in a carefully chosen place in response to magico-religious criteria and not in consideration to be a privileged place for its soils, because there are more productive nearby valleys, even considering the use of their dry hillsides cultivated by terraces.

It is significant that centuries later, Cusco, center of the Incario, was also elevated in a tinkuy or confluence of two streams of low productivity, which pays in favor of the theory that Chavín has had a similar origin.

The ancient Chavinos represented their gods in great monoliths. The best known are the monolithic lanzón, the Estela Raimondi and the Tello Obelisk, each of them a menhir, which in the Andean culture has spiritual transcendence and serves for the social and political control of the population, threatened by elements of nature and food shortage. In Quechua it means stone of power and they have an eminently sacred character. According to one interpretation, the Chavín monolith brings together the three elements of the Chavín cosmogonic trilogy: eagle, serpent and feline (air, water and earth), that is, repressive deities that serve as sentinels and ward off evil. Thus, air, water and earth confirm a permanent harmony with the Cosmos that transpires throughout the legacy of Chavín.
