Its capital, Callalli, lays on an ancient trade route for Obsidian that ran from Chivay to Lake Titicaca around 1800-200BC. The earliest findings in the region, carvings of camelids in the Mollupunko Cave, date around 8,000 years back.[2] The town of Callalli was founded as a Spanish Reduccion in 1573 with the initial name of Alcantara de Callalli.[3][4]

Callalli is the main seat of a catholic pastoral team that takes care of a 7,000 km² area including the towns of Callalli, Sibayo, Tisco, Imata and Caylloma. The parish is led by the Austrian priest and missionary Franz Windischhofer since 1991, whose work was acknowledged by the Peruvian government for "building a community of peace" in Peru since 1980.[5][6]
