Which goods did the Chibcha trade throughout northern South America?

The Chibcha (also known as the Muisca) maintained an economy characterized by intensive agriculture, diverse crafts, and extensive trade networks. Through weekly markets and regional exchange, they traded a variety of goods throughout northern South America, including:

• Farm produce: Various agricultural staples grown in the region.1
• Pottery: The Chibcha produced fine, varied ceramics that became widespread through their trade networks.12
• Cotton cloth: Textiles were a significant trade item and were also used as offerings in religious observances.1
• Metalwork: Their fine manufactures of gold and copper were highly valued and distributed through trade. While the Chibcha used gold extensively for ornaments and religious offerings, they acquired the metal itself through trade with neighboring peoples.21

These goods were transported across the region by foot, as the Chibcha did not utilize draft or pack animals for overland trade.2
