Coe's two books The Maya (6th edition, 1999) and Mexico (4th edition, 1994), on which it is largely based. It differs from Coe in some ways, and errors are my responsibility.

No written records were kept by the people, nor were there a predominant written ...

The Moche didn't conquer the Cupisnique; rather, there was a slow transition characterized by a number of developments.
