Surface collections of pottery from the area of Callalli Antiguo reveal that the site is a multicomponent occupation, but that the area appears to have been primarily a Late Horizon settlement. No brushed, unslipped pottery similar to the Chiquero Formative described by Wernke (2003) for the main Colca valley was found in this area.

The ceramics data suggest that this area, which does not have a pukara adjacent to it, was settled following the Inka conquest in the Late Horizon.
