介绍（中）	在古代秘鲁，男人的主要衣物是有袖或无袖的束腰外衣。他们在脖子的顶部有一个垂直的狭缝。在制作精致的束腰外衣方面投入了大量的精力和时间，因为在许多群体中，除了实用之外，还包括种族归属、社会地位和宗教信仰的声明。秘鲁束腰外衣在编织技术和图案上有着丰富的多样性，颜色也很丰富。这个例子采用了开缝挂毯技术，在中心和侧面连接了相同的两半，颜色大胆，设计非常不同寻常。它的主要图案由两条身体呈锯齿状斑点的鲶鱼组成，它们在束腰外衣的中心线相互面对。它们的大头有双色的眼睛、裸露的牙齿、杠铃和鳍。虽然形状和编织技术是纳斯卡的特点，但将眼睛一分为二的呈现表明了瓦里风格。这表明这件束腰外衣是在纳斯卡地区编织的，当时该地区正受到瓦里州的影响。
介绍（英）	The primary items of clothing for men in ancient Peru were tunics, with or without sleeves. They had a vertical slit opening at the top for the neck. Considerable effort and time were invested in making elaborate tunics since, in addition to being practical, among many groups they were statements of ethnic affiliation, social status, and religious beliefs. Peruvian tunics display a great deal of variety in weaving technique and patterning and a wide range of colors. This example, made in the slit-tapestry technique, with identical halves joined at the center and along the sides, is bold in color and very unusual in design. Its main pattern consists of two catfish with spotted zigzag bodies facing each other at the center line of the tunic. Their large heads have bicolored eyes, bared teeth, barbels, and fins. While the shape and weaving technique are Nasca characteristics, the rendering of the eyes in two halves is indicative of the Wari style. This suggests that the tunic was woven in the Nasca area at a time when this region was under the influence of the Wari state.
