Once the Spanish settlers had grown to immense power in South America, there began internal strife among the powerful rulers of the colonial area. Of course the whole crowd listened to this and believed that this was the case. Man handling sword Jared Diamond: There was nothing innately brilliant about Europeans themselves that allowed them to be the ones to make high quality swords. Gunpowder had originally come from China, but its use as a weapon was pioneered by the Arabs. Only of the original settlers survived the tropical heat and diseases in their new home, and the remaining survivors returned to Cartagena.

    This is an extract from: Gold and Power in Ancient Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia Jeffrey Quilter and John W. Hoopes, Editors published by Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection Washington, D.C. © 2003 Dumbarton Oaks Trustees for Harvard University Washington, D.C. Printed in the United States of America www.doaks.org/etexts.html The Seed of Life: The Symbolic Power of Gold-Copper Alloys and Metallurgical Transformations Ana María Falchetti re-Hispanic metallurgy of the Americas is known for its technical variety. Over a period of more than three thousand years, different techniques were adopted by vari- Pous Indian communities and adapted to their own cultures and beliefs. In the Central Andes, gold and silver were the predominant metals, while copper was used as a base material. Central Andeans developed an assortment of copper-based alloys. Smiths hammered copper into sheets that would later be used to create objects covered with thin coatings of gold and silver. In northern South America and the Central American isth- mus gold-copper alloys were particularly common.1 Copper metallurgy was also important in Western Mexico and farther north. Putting various local technological preferences aside, Amerindians used copper exten- sively as a base material. What then were the underlying concepts that governed the symbol- ism of copper, its combination with other metals, and particular technologies such as casting methods in Pre-Columbian Colombia, Panama, and Costa Rica? Studies of physical and chemical processes are essential to a scientific approach to met- allurgy, but for a fuller understanding, technologies should not be divorced from cultural contexts.

  • La Península Ibérica
    Conquista y colonización Según Carlos A. Loprete. Capítulo 3 (Outline). Iberoamerica: Historia de su civilización y cultura. (4ª ed. Prentice Hall, 2001). El régimen de la conquista y colonización Al mismo tiempo que se desarrollaban las expediciones de exploración, los españoles y portugueses iniciaron las luchas por la posesión de los territorios descubiertos, amparados por las bulas de donación y disposiciones reales que les otorgaban títulos legítimos para la ocupación. La Conquista no fue, como a veces suele creerse, una empresa totalmente oficial de la Corona española. Salvo casos especiales, estuvo a cargo de individuos u organizaciones comerciales que convenían con los reyes, mediante una capitulación o contrato, las obligaciones y los derechos de las partes. Ni bien descubierta América, la Corona española se planteó diversas cuestiones de soberanía, jurisdicción, administración y finalidad acerca de la tarea por realizar. Por estos factores, la conquista española ha sido considerada una obra de carácter popular y colectivo y no una empresa del Estado, aunque él participara desde la metrópoli con apoyos de variada naturaleza. En tal sentido, hubo en los comienzos frecuentes quejas porque el Estado no gastaba suficiente dinero en las expediciones. En otras palabras, el régimen de la Conquista no admite comparación con las guerras militares de España y sus vecinos de Europa o del norte de África. Se ha notado también que las clases nobles o económicamente fuertes no se interesaron mayormente por las misiones y más bien las relegaron a los segundones. El rey solía conceder, según los casos, títulos honoríficos, funciones de gobierno, propiedad sobre las tierras, repartimientos de indios, parte de las rentas o beneficios pecuniarios obtenidos, derechos sobre las minas y otras regalías a los actores.

  • Contemporary Muisca Indigenous Sounds in the Colombian Andes
    Nymsuque: Contemporary Muisca Indigenous Sounds in the Colombian Andes Beatriz Goubert Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Beatriz Goubert All rights reserved ABSTRACT Nymsuque: Contemporary Muisca Indigenous Sounds in the Colombian Andes Beatriz Goubert Muiscas figure prominently in Colombian national historical accounts as a worthy and valuable indigenous culture, comparable to the Incas and Aztecs, but without their architectural grandeur. The magnificent goldsmith’s art locates them on a transnational level as part of the legend of El Dorado. Today, though the population is small, Muiscas are committed to cultural revitalization. The 19th century project of constructing the Colombian nation split the official Muisca history in two. A radical division was established between the illustrious indigenous past exemplified through Muisca culture as an advanced, but extinct civilization, and the assimilation politics established for the indigenous survivors, who were considered degraded subjects to be incorporated into the national project as regular citizens (mestizos). More than a century later, and supported in the 1991’s multicultural Colombian Constitution, the nation-state recognized the existence of five Muisca cabildos (indigenous governments) in the Bogotá Plateau, two in the capital city and three in nearby towns. As part of their legal battle for achieving recognition and maintaining it, these Muisca communities started a process of cultural revitalization focused on language, musical traditions, and healing practices. Today’s Muiscas incorporate references from the colonial archive, archeological collections, and scholars’ interpretations of these sources into their contemporary cultural practices.

  • Francisco Xeres, Narrative of the Conquest of Peru (1547)1
    1 Primary Source 5.7 FRANCISCO XERES, NARRATIVE OF THE CONQUEST OF PERU (1547)1 As their navigational capabilities and commercial appetites expanded, European mariners began to explore all the corners of the world in order to gain access to precious commodities, discover new lands, and forge colonial empires. Despite the danger of embarking into the unknown, many of these endeavors were successful. Even when vastly outnumbered by natives, the Europeans won many battles thanks to superior weaponry, training, and tactics. Following the discovery of the Americas in 1492, the Spanish conquered much of the New World and, in the process, easily overthrew its only two relatively sophisticated empires, the Aztec and Incan. Inspired by Hernán Cortés’s (1485–1547) conquest of the Aztec Empire and rumors of fabulous riches in Peru, Francisco Pizarro (1471–1541) undertook several expeditions into the Inca lands. The rich gifts of precious metals he received merely aroused his craving for more. In 1532, Pizarro, met the Inca ruler, Atahualpa (or Atabaliba; r. 1532–33), who had just seized power in a bloody civil war. After some sham diplomacy, Pizarro called for his men to attack. Hundreds of Inca soldiers were slaughtered on the spot with few Spanish casualties. Atahualpa was captured, made into a puppet ruler, and later executed. The attack demonstrated the extraordinary military asymmetry of the two sides, the Spaniards’ ruthlessness, and the weak social coherence of the native peoples. As the Spaniards expanded their sway, many natives joined with them. The following is an excerpt from an account of Pizarro’s travels recorded by Francisco Xeres (1495–1565?), who had traveled with Pizarro on his expeditions.

    H-LatAm Lane on Gabai, 'Francisco Pizarro and his Brothers: The Illusion of Power in Sixteenth-century Peru' Review published on Sunday, February 1, 1998 Rafael Varon Gabai. Francisco Pizarro and his Brothers: The Illusion of Power in Sixteenth-century Peru. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1997. xvi + 352 pp. $34.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-8061-2833-7. Reviewed by Kris Lane (Dept. of History, College of William & Mary)Published on H-LatAm (February, 1998) Conquest As a Rent-Seeking Family Business "Gold brings cares and so does the lack of it; but the cares of poverty are alleviated when one attains a moderate fortune, and those of wealth increase the more one gets." - Cervantes,The Jealous Extremaduran Though long obscured by the shadow of the Black Legend and its focus on wanton conquistador cruelty, the conquest of Tawantinsuyu, as Rafael Varon Gabai rightly argues in this ample new volume, was always a self-consciously entrepreneurial project. Whether descendants of swineherds or bluebloods, the men of Cajamarca were businessmen, shareholders in a very risky enterprise; they differed from contemporary merchants in that they bet not only their purses (and horses), but their very lives on the profitability of a given venture. Though at times this Wall Street terminology seems anachronistic, in painting the Pizarro brothers and their competitors as cunning investors struggling to survive in a Hobbesian business environment, Mr. Varon gives new meaning to the term "corporate raiders." Yet even when this less-studied aspect of the complex of events that transpired between the Capitulacion of Toledo and the seizure of Cusco is highlighted, Francisco Pizarro and his brothers seem just as unable to escape decadence as in any Black Legend yarn.

After graduating from high school in 1967, Julien began her academic career at Whitman College, a Liberal Arts college in Walla Walla, Washington, where she studied philosophy, economics, and history. In 1970, she enrolled at the University of California at Berkeley to study anthropology and finished her studies in December 1971 with a B.A. in anthropology. With her studies at Berkeley began Julien’s lifelong association with John H. Rowe and his wife Patricia Lyon. Julien especially understood herself first and fore- most to be in a continuous dialogue with Rowe. At his suggestion, she went to Peru in 1972 and worked with the collections of Inca ceramics at the Museo Arqueológico of the Universidad Nacional de San Antonio de Abad in Cuzco, a research project aiming at a more detailed chronology of Inca-style pottery. In 1973 and 1974, Julien worked as a fieldwork assistant in the Qotakalli Tarawi project organized by Rowe and Lyon, excavating sites in the neighborhood of Cuzco.
