Traditionally, the historical development of Chavín is considered as a "cultural horizon" due to its artistic and religious influences present in other contemporary cultures. Much of that historical development corresponds to the Formative Period specifically to the Middle Formative and the Higher Formative, which has as its characteristics the intensification of the religious cult, the appearance of the ceramics closely related to the ceremonial centers, the intensification of the cultivation of corn and potatoes, the improvement of agricultural techniques and the development of metallurgy and textiles.
