Thesis Ceramic Analysis of the Tabuchila Complex Of THESIS CERAMIC ANALYSIS OF THE TABUCHILA COMPLEX OF THE JAMA RIVER VALLEY, MANABÍ, ECUADOR Submitted by Corey A. Herrmann Department of Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2016 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Mary Van Buren Co-Advisor: James Zeidler Christopher Fisher Catherine DiCesare Copyright by Corey Alexander Herrmann 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT CERAMIC ANALYSIS OF THE TABUCHILA COMPLEX OF THE JAMA RIVER VALLEY, MANABÍ, ECUADOR Archaeological excavations by the Proyecto Arqueológico-Paleoetnobotánico Río Jama (PAPRJ) in the Jama River Valley of northern Manabí, Ecuador, have established a cultural chronology spanning over three millennia of prehispanic occupation. One of these occupations, the Tabuchila Complex of the Late Formative Period (1000 – 500 BCE), remains poorly understood. Excavations at three sites in the Jama Valley in the 1990s recovered ceramic, lithic, obsidian, paleobotanical, archaeofaunal, and human skeletal remains from Late Formative Tabuchila contexts, with the goal of orienting Late Formative occupation of the northern Manabí region to its contemporaries in western lowland Ecuador. This study employs modal ceramic analysis to recognize and catalogue formal and stylistic variation within the recovered Tabuchila ceramic assemblage. Through this analysis the Tabuchila assemblage is compared to other studies of Late Formative Chorrera assemblages to understand how Tabuchila represented a regional variant of and contributor to the formation of the Chorrera ceramic tradition. In addition, a sovereignty-based theoretical approach explores how this ceramic assemblage reflects deeper processes of emergent social complexity and early attempts at establishing inequality in northern Manabí’s regional mound center of San Isidro. Results and discussions of the analysis examine a community connected with its Middle and Late Formative contemporaries across the western lowlands and engaged in feasting activity in the vicinity of the central mound of San Isidro. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT .................................................................................................................................... ii LIST OF TABLES ......................................................................................................................... iv LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................................ v CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................... 1 CHAPTER 2: A SOVEREIGN ARCHAEOLOGY OF LATE FORMATIVE ECUADOR ...... 11 CHAPTER 3: PAST EXPLORATIONS OF CHORRERA CERAMIC CULTURE ................... 29 CHAPTER 4: ARCHAEOLOGICAL EXCAVATIONS IN THE JAMA VALLEY, MANABÍ 54 CHAPTER 5: MODAL ANALYSIS OF LATE FORMATIVE CERAMICS OF THE JAMA RIVER VALLEY.......................................................................................................................... 72 CHAPTER 6: RESULTS OF MODAL ANALYSIS OF THE JAMA VALLEY TABUCHILA ASSEMBLAGE ............................................................................................................................ 88 CHAPTER 7: CONCLUSIONS ................................................................................................. 147 REFERENCES ........................................................................................................................... 163 APPENDIX A: EXCAVATION REPORTS FROM THE JAMA RIVER VALLEY ............... 175 iii LIST OF TABLES Table 3.1.

  • The Prehistoric Archaeology of Venezuela, Colombia and Ecuador
    The Cambridge Prehistory Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela Roberto Lleras 1. The geographic setting Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela together cover all of north-western South America; a region broadly comprising over two million, three hundred thousand square kilometres. The whole territory is located in the torrid tropical zone, most of it north of the Equator. The ample morphological and ecological diversity determines the existence of many different natural regions, being the main ones: 1) The Pacific coast, a dry, hilly stretch of lowland in south and central Ecuador and, further north, a mountainous humid tropical forest along Colombia up to the Panama isthmus. 2) The Andes, a complex region formed by several cordilleras cut by longitudinal and traverse river valleys that form climatic micro-niches. The Andes, roughly running in the south–north direction, divide in Colombia into three different cordilleras, one of which extends into Venezuela forming the Sierra de Merida. 3) The Caribbean coast; starting from the west, a dense tropical forest that gradually turns into savannah up to the foothills of the Sierra Nevada maritime massif, and then a long stretch of dry plains forming several peninsulas and encircling the Maracaibo lake. Further east into Venezuela there is the Central Cordillera that gradually dies to give way to the large delta of the Orinoco River. 4) The Llanos, a large system of lowland savannahs intersected by large rivers running into the Orinoco basin. 1 5) The Amazon and Guyana tropical forests, occupying eastern Ecuador, southeast Colombia and south Venezuela. Within each of these main regions there are several different zones; canyons, plateaux, deltas, marshlands, deserts and valleys, each with its specific type of vegetation and fauna.

  • Rather Than Agent 109 Representing a Cajamarca Ethnicity, Another
    Report for posting on WWW website. Other than Agent 109 representing a Cajamarca ethnicity, another possible event is being proposed here. The event focuses on the probability that the ethnic identity of Agent 109 represents the Huancavilcas of Ecuador. Who were the Huancavilcas? At the time of conquest, the Huancavilcas occupied the Ecuadorian coastal area of Guayaquil Bay with the Isla de Puná and west through the Santa Elena Peninsula whereas the regions north are considered the Manteño heartland though with their possible dominance over the Huancavilcas (McEwan and Delgado-Espinoza 2008: 509-510; Stothert 2001: 251-271). Among the hundreds of post-colonial drawings by Felipe Guaman Poma de Ayala there are three depicting males who wear nose rings and earrings (Guaman Poma 1615/1616: 163, 246, 386), and have simple caps or a headband tied in front. One is shown as a cargadore with ropes around the shoulders (IBID: 246) and another designates tribes that the Inca Atahualpa subdued as represented by captain, Challco Chima (IBID: 183). Among the named tribes (Chachapoya, Cañari, Ciccho, Puruuay, Cico, Chupaycho) is “Guanca Bilca” or Huancavilca (Sarmiento [1999]:171). The third depicts Inca Atahualpa at the city of Cajamarca as he sits on his usnu or throne listening to Fray Vicente (IBID: 386). At the right is their legua or interpreter, Felipe, with a raised hand pointing upward. The accompanying text describes him as yndio Guanca Vilca or Huancavilca native and this image confirms the same ethnic traits in the other drawings. More precisely, Jacinto Jijón y Caamaño (1988 [1941]: 116) in reference to Garcilaso de la Vega wrote that Felipe - aka Felipillo - was Pizarro’s famous interpreter from the isle of Puná (Gheerbrant 1961: 379).

  • ARTESANO-ARTISTA-Brochure-Cb0
    1 2 3 4 Creating handcrafts is a sublime act combining knowledge and techniques that have remained throughout time. Our artisans’ creativity is as diverse as our cultural wealth. The historical background and hard work converge in the elaboration of these magnificent crafts, in which- undeniably - the artisans’ soul is embodied. Their skillful hands and patience transform raw materials that are mainly found in nature into crafts that are admired all over the world. Such is the beauty of these crafts that we do not know whether we are seeing a handcraft or if we are in front of a piece of art. 5 Therefore while we admire them, we feel breathless with weaving of ecuadorian toquilla straw hat, natural dyes woven in the fibers of the shawls (macanas), as well as the design of molten silver and golden threads. I invite you to rediscover a piece of our culture through this exhibition that takes us along every detail of the beauty of the crafts done with the sensitivity and love of our artisans.
