and one and two floors. Instead of a front door, they have side doors. They are often sideways attached to dividing walls or use a common wall. The back side does not have a wall, since the mausoleums were constructed closer to the rock. Revash's funeral houses have moldings around the tops of the walls, which are painted with figures, such as felines, South American camelids, people, and two-color circles. They are clearly affiliated to the mausoleums and therefore not necessarily attributable to the preagricultural millennial societies in that area. The walls of the mausoleums also include art made from incisions in the walls themselves. They are constituted by representations in shape of a T, crosses and rectangles. The symbols in cross are similar in form and execution to those used on the coast architecture of Virú. Their symbolic content is still unknown although the cruciform motives are identical to those of the side walls on the church in La Jalca, which, according to the local tradition, would have been raised by the mythical Juan Oso, or "small bear". The mausoleums of Chachapoyas do not present Inca cultural influences, but they surface relatively late in Peruvian archeological history. In 1950, Paule and Henry Reichlen estimated that the mausoleums might date to the 14th century C.E. and that they were connected with the funeral architecture known as chullpa, which was common in ancient Peru during the period Tiahuanaco-Huari (around 1000 C.E.)
