In the 1890's a german engineer named Hanz Bruning (spelling?) discovered the Lambayeque valley in northern Peru where over 250 badly eroded
pyramids had been overlooked. The largest of them was bigger than Khufu's great pyramid of Giza.
This video tells the story of the Lambayeque people, called that because they had no writing and nobody knows what they called themselves, how they built more pyramids than any other culture in history and eventually disapeared.

This is about the Chimu, Moche and Sican culture. They were centered in the Chicama, Moche, and Viru valleys in what is now NW Peru.

Chimu
Sican
With all due respect can you provide any proof of this?
I saw no mention of the Chicama, Moche, and Viru valleys.
This says it was the Lambayeque valley, and that the reason they are called 'The Lambayeque People' is because they had no form of writing and nobody knows what they even called themselves.
Is it possible that you simply made a mistake?

Lambayeque is a region in northwestern Peru, known for its rich Chimú, Sican and Moche historical past.
No idea why they would rename those known civilizations, they may have been using a blanket term for the various cultures found there.
Proof? Well Wiki is easiest but here is something more my style:
The valley
If the video was trying to sell itself they may have coined a new name to make it sound more mysterious

These are the questions addressed by our long-term research in the Lambayeque Valley. An initial survey located an ideal site to tackle the issue of specialization: The S sector (S166) of a 6 ha complex of agglutinated rooms along the ancient Taymi Canal on the Pampa de Burros dates to the Chimú period (AD 1350-1460); partially excavated in 1992, it produced evidence of specialized pottery production far from the centers of Chimú power and with no evidence of state interference. The larger N sector (S165) dates to the Middle Sicán period (AD 900-1100); here, a bottle mold fragment suggested the possibility of specialized crafts.
