Peace and Democratization in Peru: Advances, Setbacks, and Reflections in the 2000 Elections A report on a conference sponsored by the George Washington University Andean Seminar and the Washington Office on Latin America Acknowledgements The Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA) and the George Washington University (GWU) Andean Seminar gratefully acknowledge the support of the United States Institute of Peace for this conference, which was held at George Washington University on January 27, 2000. The conference was organized by WOLA Senior Associate Coletta Youngers and GWU Professor Cynthia McClintock. Numerous individuals contributed to the organization of the event, but particular credit goes to WOLA Program Assistant Peter Clark and James Foster of GWU. WOLA research assistant Stephen Moore provided invaluable assistance in transcribing the conference tapes. We would also like to extend our sincere gratitude to all of those who participated in the conference, and in particular those who traveled from Peru. This rapporteur’s report was authored by Cynthia McClintock and edited by Coletta Youngers. It is based on recordings of the presentations and written notes provided by the speakers. In order to release the report in a quick and timely manner, speakers were not provided the opportunity to review the written comments presented in this report. Peter Clark coordinated production and distribution of the report. Introduction On January 27, 2000, historic elections in Peru were just ten weeks away. Nearing the end of almost a decade in office, incumbent President Alberto Fujimori sought an unprecedented third term and led in the polls by a considerable margin. Assessment of the achievements and setbacks to conflict resolution and democracy in Peru during the decade, as well as the prospects for change after the elections, was timely. -
Lost Languages of the Peruvian North Coast LOST LANGUAGES LANGUAGES LOST
12 Lost Languages of the Peruvian North Coast LOST LANGUAGES LANGUAGES LOST ESTUDIOS INDIANA 12 LOST LANGUAGES ESTUDIOS INDIANA OF THE PERUVIAN NORTH COAST COAST NORTH PERUVIAN THE OF This book is about the original indigenous languages of the Peruvian North Coast, likely associated with the important pre-Columbian societies of the coastal deserts, but poorly documented and now irrevocably lost Sechura and Tallán in Piura, Mochica in Lambayeque and La Libertad, and further south Quingnam, perhaps spoken as far south as the Central Coast. The book presents the original distribution of these languages in early colonial Matthias Urban times, discusses available and lost sources, and traces their demise as speakers switched to Spanish at different points of time after conquest. To the extent possible, the book also explores what can be learned about the sound system, grammar, and lexicon of the North Coast languages from the available materials. It explores what can be said on past language contacts and the linguistic areality of the North Coast and Northern Peru as a whole, and asks to what extent linguistic boundaries on the North Coast can be projected into the pre-Columbian past.

1 Globalization Without Markets?
Globalization without markets? Population movement and other integrative mechanisms in the Ancient Andes Bill Sillar Abstract In late pre-Hispanic periods much of modern Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina and Ecuador was connected by a network of intense interactions through the long distance movement of people as well as goods and ideas. Rather than prioritising an analysis of the movement of goods as a measure of globalisation this article stresses the more limited role of market exchange in the Andes but that the movement of people, knowledge and skills is strongly expressed in the transfer of technologies and sharing of stylistic elements. It presents a broad description of cross-cultural and interregional contacts that were taking places in the Andean highlands and Pacific coast from around 500 CE till the period of European colonization around 1600 CE, including the Wari and Inka Empires. It reviews mechanisms of social and economic integration that shaped the globalizing tendencies in the Andes through a review of archaeological evidence as well as early historical records. Integrative mechanisms in the Ancient Andes Many of the behaviours that shape modern globalization were common to earlier periods and places (Feinman this volume). But, some of the primary economic structures and technologies that drove early globalization of ancient Eurasia were of less significance in the Ancient Andes. Latter pre-Hispanic Andean economies undoubtedly had a ‘complex connectivity’ (Jennings 2011: 2, citing Tomlinson 1999: 2) with a dense network of intense interactions and interdependencies that integrated disparate people through the long distance movement of goods, ideas, and individuals. The primary forms of connectivity (Jennings this volume) and networking (Knappet this volume) that shaped Andean societies are expressed in the transfer of technologies and the borrowing of stylistic elements as well as large-scale movement of people. -
South American Camelids in Central Andean Religious Practices

Broughton All rights reserved ii SOUTH AMERICAN CAMELIDS IN CENTRAL ANDEAN RELIGIOUS PRACTICES Kelley L. Broughton, B.A. University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, 2010 Abstract This paper focuses on using ethno-historic and ethnographic sources in order to determine if these works are able to assist with interpreting what is found archaeologically. It looks at the uses of South American camelids in ritual contexts by examining ethno-historic documents from the sixteenth century as well as more recent ethnographic works and comparing them to what has been found archaeologically. Through this we will hopefully be able to gain a better understanding of whether these data can be used to interpret archaeological finds or if too much has changed in the region since Spanish colonization as a result of the introduction of Christianity, European influences, and globalization. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank everyone who has given me support and has helped me in writing this thesis. In particular I thank Dr. Tim McAndrews and Dr. Christine Hippert for being my readers as well as helping me organize my ideas and for being there when I needed help. I also would like to thank Dr. -
Peru Country Packet Updated April 2019
Peru Country Packet Updated April 2019 Maranatha in Peru The Seventh-day Adventist message trickled into Peru in the early 1900’s as missionaries entered the country from Chile. In 1911 a missionary couple named Fernando and Ana Stahl worked for ten years in the Lake Titicaca region with the Aymara and Quechua Indians and later moved to the Amazon region until they retired in 1939. Sixty-five years later, in 2004, the Adventist Church in Peru was thriving and one of the fastest growing Adventist memberships worldwide. However, they didn’t have the church buildings to accommodate such growth. Many congregations were either sharing a church or renting space in order to meet each Sabbath. In 2004, the church leadership requested Maranatha’s assistance. We agreed to complete nearly 100 churches as part of Maranatha’s initiative to build 1,000 churches in 1,000 days. We completed this commitment in 2006 and moved on to other countries in Central and South America in need of assistance. In 2018, Maranatha received another request for churches and school classrooms from the Adventist Church in South America and the North and South regions of Peru. The churches and schools that Maranatha built in the mid 2000s have resulted in further growth, leaving Peru in need of more space for worship and education. Maranatha agreed to help Peru, and projects will begin in December 2019. Volunteer Opportunities In Peru, Maranatha will focus on church construction consisting of concrete floors, steel frames, and roofs. Maranatha has also committed to building school classrooms throughout the country. -

This volume brings together a corpus of scholars whose work collectively represents a significant advancement in the study of prehistoric ethnicity in the Andean region. The assembled research represents an outstanding collection of theoretical and methodological approaches, and conveys recent discoveries in several subfields of prehistoric Andean anthropology, including spatial archaeology, mortuary archaeology, textile studies, ceramic analysis, and biological anthropology. Many of the authors in this volume apply novel research techniques, while others wield more established approaches in original ways. Although the research presented in this volume has occurred in the Andean region, many of the novel methods applied will be applicable to other geographic regions, and it is hoped that this research will stimulate others to pursue future innovative work in the prehistoric study of ethnic identification.
