  • The Moche Lima Beans Recording System, Revisited
    THE MOCHE LIMA BEANS RECORDING SYSTEM, REVISITED Tomi S. Melka Abstract: One matter that has raised sufficient uncertainties among scholars in the study of the Old Moche culture is a system that comprises patterned Lima beans. The marked beans, plus various associated effigies, appear painted by and large with a mixture of realism and symbolism on the surface of ceramic bottles and jugs, with many of them showing an unparalleled artistry in the great area of the South American subcontinent. A range of accounts has been offered as to what the real meaning of these items is: starting from a recrea- tional and/or a gambling game, to a divination scheme, to amulets, to an appli- cation for determining the length and order of funerary rites, to a device close to an accountancy and data storage medium, ending up with an ‘ideographic’, or even a ‘pre-alphabetic’ system. The investigation brings together structural, iconographic and cultural as- pects, and indicates that we might be dealing with an original form of mnemo- technology, contrived to solve the problems of medium and long-distance com- munication among the once thriving Moche principalities. Likewise, by review- ing the literature, by searching for new material, and exploring the structure and combinatory properties of the marked Lima beans, as well as by placing emphasis on joint scholarly efforts, may enhance the studies. Key words: ceramic vessels, communicative system, data storage and trans- mission, fine-line drawings, iconography, ‘messengers’, painted/incised Lima beans, patterns, pre-Inca Moche culture, ‘ritual runners’, tokens “Como resultado de la falta de testimonios claros, todas las explicaciones sobre este asunto parecen in- útiles; divierten a la curiosidad sin satisfacer a la razón.” [Due to a lack of clear evidence, all explana- tions on this issue would seem useless; they enter- tain the curiosity without satisfying the reason] von Hagen (1966: 157).

  • Measuring the Passage of Time in Inca and Early Spanish Peru Kerstin Nowack Universität Bonn, Germany
    Measuring the Passage of Time in Inca and Early Spanish Peru Kerstin Nowack Universität Bonn, Germany Abstract: In legal proceedings from 16th century viceroyalty of Peru, indigenous witnesses identified themselves according to the convention of Spanish judicial system by name, place of residence and age. This last category often proved to be difficult. Witnesses claimed that they did not know their age or gave an approximate age using rounded decimal numbers. At the moment of the Spanish invasion, people in the Andes followed the progress of time during the year by observing the course of the sun and the lunar cycle, but they were not interested in measuring time spans beyond the year. The opposite is true for the Spanish invaders. The documents where the witnesses testified were dated precisely using counting years from a date in the distant past, the birth year of the founder of the Christian religion. But this precision in the written record perhaps distorts the reality of everyday Spanish practices. In daily life, Spaniards often measured time in a reference system similar to that used by the Andeans, dividing the past in relation to public events like a war or personal turning points like the birth of a child. In the administrative and legal area, official Spanish dating prevailed, and Andean people were forced to adapt to this novel practice. This paper intends to contrast the Andean and Spanish ways of measuring the past, but will also focus on the possible areas of overlap between both practices. Finally, it will be asked how Andeans reacted to and interacted with Spanish dating and time measuring.

  • Inca Technology for Sustainable Communities in Mars
    Copyright © 2015 by Rodolfo Beltrán. Published by The Mars Society with permission INCA TECHNOLOGY FOR SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES IN MARS. Arq. Rodolfo Beltrán, MArch. CAP 807 Registered Architect in Perú and Venezuela. Proposal for Sustainable Communities in future human settlements and Cities in MARS. CONCEPT The concept contemplates using successful historical INCA Technology solutions for Agricultural Crops, Hydraulic Infrastructure, horizontal and vertical transport, housing and use of renewable energies. The INCA civilization of Perú which covered part of present Colombia, Ecuador, Perú Bolivia and Chile has a significant technological and cultural legacy. Of 190 countries in the world Perú is one of six that are classified as cradle of ancient civilizations. It was the only civilization in which massive organized governmental works had a communitarian benefit objective with a sharing/ reciprocal work methodology (MINKA, MITA). The agricultural ANDENES or terraces were a system of Vertical Agriculture and civil infrastructure that provided food security, vertical and horizontal transport, efficiency of water resource, use of renewable clean energy for a 12 Million population (INCA Period from 700 to 1534 BC.). They developed the highest and most sustainable artificial structures in the world: The ANDENES or INCA Terraces that challenged high altitudes, and geographical defy have been with us for more than 1500 years and will be for at least 1500 years more.

  • The Inca Healer: Empirical Medical Knowledge and Magic in Pre-Columbian Peru
    Revista de Indias, 2015, vol. LXXV, n.º 264 Págs. 323-350, ISSN: 0034-8341 doi:10.3989/revindias.2015.011 The Inca healer: empirical medical knowledge and magic in pre-Columbian Peru by Jan G. R. Elferink Leiden University, Holanda The role of medical practitioners among the Incas is addressed, based on archeological findings and especially the writings of the Spanish chroniclers. In Inca medicine a large role was reserved for religion and magic but at the same time an extensive knowledge of medicinal plants was available. As a consequence there were several types of healers who cured with a mixture of medicinal plants and religious-magic ceremonies. The hampicamayoc or ‘official in charge of medicines’ was the one who resembled somewhat the European physician of that time and was the most important type of healer. He relied largely but certainly not exclusively on the use of medicinal plants. There were also healers who cured mainly with religious-magic procedures. Surgery must have been important for the Inca healer but this is hardly reflected in the work of the Spanish chroniclers. KEY WORDS: Inca; healer; medicine; magic; hampicamayoc. INTRODUCTION The Incas represented the last of many highly developed indigenous cul- tures which existed along the Pacific coast and in the Andean highlands of South-America. At the time of the conquest the Inca empire stretched from Colombia in the north till mid-Chile in the south. There is a reasonable amount of information about some aspects of Inca medicine, such as the application of medicinal plants. About other aspects of Inca medicine we are far less informed and that also applies to the Inca practitioners of medicine which will be here denoted as healers.

Mit einer Länge von ca. 55.000 Kilometern ist der Qhapaq Ñan eine bauliche Meisterleistung, deren Spuren bis dato – mehr oder weni- ger gut – erhalten sind. Qhapaq Ñan Inkastraßensystem Vom gesamten Inkastraßennetz sind bisher nur wenige Ki- im Wandel der Zeit lometer als Trekking-Routen genutzt. Der wohl bekannteste Abschnitt ist der Inka Trail, der im Rahmen einer viertägi- gen Wanderung durch die Region Cuzco zu den Inkaruinen Machu Picchu führt. Wie kann nachhaltiger Tourismus entlang sensibler Teilstre- Qhapaq Ñan cken des Qhapaq Ñan erfolgreich etabliert werden, damit er einen Beitrag zur Regionalentwicklung leistet? Wie können „Schützen und Nützen“ miteinander in Einklang gebracht werden?

Gareca • Martin Hermy • Jon Fjeldsa˚ • Olivier Honnay Received: 11 November 2009 / Accepted: 13 July 2010 / Published online: 1 August 2010 Ó Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2010 Abstract Mountain forests deserve special attention from ecologists and conservation biologists given the ecosystem services they provide to society, and their threat under global change. In the subalpine region of the Andes, Polylepis woodlands occur as arboreal islands in a matrix of grassland and scrub. Due to overgrazing and burning, however, these woodland patches are believed to cover only 11% of their potential area in Bolivia, core area for Polylepis.

The long history of the ch 'ulluis marked by both its use as geographic identifier, and as a canvas upon which to present the same designs that represent ancient Andean ideas about ancestory, land and time.
