[From the Original 1927 Catalog] This group takes its name Velarde from the Prefect pf Trujillo Don Carlos Aureo Velarde who accidentally discovered in it some walls covered with magnificent designs in high relief in 1905 or 1906. These walls have been photographed and reproduced in books an infinite number of times. Not a single design is in existence today. The group is situation between the Spanish church of San Jose and the Huanchaco road on the northeast. The works of the Tello group bound it on the southeast; as do the Cabildo group. This is surrounded by a wall which has been cut by the huaeros in various places. It is of the same general aspect as the other groups; a huaca or principal building (in this case the one with the decorated walls discovered by Velarde) yapus and small constructions. It is one of those most frequently visited by the tourists. The principal edifice appears to be buried.

[From the Original 1927 Catalog] Along the length of the deep canyon which aids in the formation of the table land upon which Chan Chan stands are various indentations and projecting spits of land which act variously as wells or dikes. For which reason Middendorf judged them to be works formed by the sea. These walls which are the same level as the beach are constantly moist and the and the fishermen of the neighborhood use them as places to spread out the fibrous material which they use in the manufacture of the mats and little fish nets. All of these show signs of having been faced with rock. The wachakes number more than ten but I have photographed only the most notable ones.

[From the Original 1927 Catalog] There are but few vestiges of the many roads and avenues that once existed both within and without the city of Chan Chan. Of the few that do remain photographs have been obtained. Here are vestiges of a broad avenue that once ran along the northwestern side of the city. However the only part which has been preserved is that which runs from the church of San Jose towards north-northeast and that includes the walls which guard it. This avenue reaches the furthest beyond the stone work of the city being extended by a road which runs in a straight line across the plain bein lost only in the broken ground near the Rio Seco (dry river). It has been the belief that this road ran as far as the hacienda of the Chicam valley (called Sausal). Another road lined with ramparts of adobe and stone respectively cut the aforementioned avenue at right angles and ran in the direction of the Rio Seco through the fields now called Valdivia which are cultivated by the present day huanchaqueros. In the same plain are the vestiges of other roads, remains of canals and even traces of foundation dwellings.
