This influence included imagery, Wari in coastal regions. Dorothy Menzel’s (1964) study use of color, slip-painting, and high-temperature firing of Middle Horizon ceramics was one of the first to try (Benavides C. 1971; Cook 1984–1985; Knobloch 1976; and define the relationship between the Wari state Menzel 1964). Conversely, Wari pottery (especially the and the Nasca culture.

Previous information of this species from fossil, archaeological and modern records is reviewed. The use of the white sharks as an El Niño indicator is rejected.

Erickson PROFESSOR: Dr. Clark Erickson 435 Penn Museum [email protected] 215-898-2282 DESCRIPTION: ANTH 433: Andean Archaeology (Cross-listed as Latin American and Latino Studies 433) This course provides a basic survey of the prehistory of civilizations in the Central Andean Region of South America (the central highland and coastal areas that today are Peru and Bolivia and parts of Ecuador, Chile, and Argentina). Topics include the history of South American archaeology, peopling of the continent, origins and evolution of agriculture, early village life, ceremonial and domestic architecture, prehistoric art and symbolism, Andean cosmology and astronomy, indigenous technology, the historical ecology of landscapes, outside contacts and relationships, economics and trade, social and political structure, state formation and urbanism, and early contacts with Europeans. The lectures and readings are based on recent archaeological investigations and interpretations combined with appropriate analogy from ethnohistory and ethnography. The prehistory of the Amazonian lowlands and "the intermediate area" of northern South America will be covered in other courses. Slides and several films are used to illustrate concepts and sites presented in lecture. I generally do not stop the lecture to spell terminology, although periodically you will be provided handouts with lists of important terminology. Questions and comments are encouraged and may be asked before, during, or after lectures. I will also make use of artifacts from the extensive South American collections of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology (Penn Museum).in class and/or in the collection rooms of the Penn Museum instead of in our regular classroom.

  • Thesis Death and the Family: Testing Andean Lineage
    THESIS DEATH AND THE FAMILY: TESTING ANDEAN LINEAGE TOMBS THROUGH CRANIAL NON-METRICS Submitted by Sarah Frances Herrera 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: Ann Magennis Co-advisor: Mary Van Buren Michael Lacy Copyright by Sarah Frances Herrera 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT DEATH AND THE FAMILY: TESTING ANDEAN LINEAGE TOMBS THROUGH CRANIAL NON-METRICS Historical records indicate that ancestor worship was practiced as part of ayllu social organization in the Inka empire during the Late Horizon and beginning of the Colonial Period (1440 A.D. - 1650 A.D.). This same set of beliefs and practices is often ascribed to the Late Intermediate Period (900 A.D. – 1440 A.D.) throughout the Andes by many researchers (Doyle 1988; Herrera 2003; Ibarra 2013; Isbell 1997; Mantha 2006; Martiarena 2014). It is important for the study of any site so far removed from the historical records to be cautious when using these documents for the interpretation of the archaeological record. The significance of this study is that little has been done using a bioarchaeological approach to test the assumption that ayllus and ancestor worship were present in the Conchucos region during the Late Intermediate Period. The site of Marcajirca is located on the ridge of a sacred ancestor mountain, Mt Llamoq, in North Central Peru. Although the site is a village, it has an especially large amount of mortuary architecture consisting of above ground tombs or chullpas, as well as caves, and underground structures that contain human remains.

  • Los Sarcófagos Y Los Mausoleos Preincas En Chachapoyas Pre-Inca Sarcophagi and Mausoleums in Chachapoyas
    42 Los sarcófagos y los mausoleos preincas en Chachapoyas Pre-inca Sarcophagi and Mausoleums in Chachapoyas Ángela Brachetti-Tschohl Doctora en Antropología Resumen: La arquitectura funeraria de los chachapoyas de época preinca se caracteriza por la presencia de dos formas de enterramiento: el mausoleo o tumba colectiva, y el sarcófago, sepulcro unipersonal de aspecto humano. Todos los sitios funerarios, tanto de mausoleos como de sarcófagos, tienen en común el encontrarse en lugares aislados y en lo alto de las montañas, en precipicios, grutas o galerías, siendo la mayoría inaccesibles. Palabras clave: mundo andino amazónico, creencias funerarias preincas, arquitectura funera- ria, etnohistoria. Abstract: The funeral architecture of the Chachapoyas, in pre-Inca times, shows two forms of burial: the mausoleum –a collective tomb– and the sarcophagus, an individual sepulture with human shape. All the burial grounds of the mausoleums and sarcophagi have something in common: they are found in isolated places at the top of the cliffs of the mountains, most of them unreachable, in caves or underground passages. Keywords: Andean world in Amazonia, the pre-Inca funerary beliefs, funeral architecture, Ethno-history. I. La zona de Chachapoyas La región de Chachapoyas se encuentra en los Andes Amazónicos del Perú y fue conquistada, en 1475, por el inca Tupac Yupanqui, quien combatió contra la fiera resistencia de los chacha- poyas. Tupac Yupanqui quemó varias aldeas en su recorrido hacia el norte y redujo otras muchas pequeñas a lo largo del camino. Más tarde, el siguiente gobernante, el inca Huayna Capac, desterró a más pueblos de la región de Chachapoyas. Muchos de los cronistas españoles como Cieza de León (1554), Sarmiento de Gamboa (1572), Acosta (1590) o Garcilaso de la Vega (1609) mencionan la provincia de Chachapoyas en la época de la conquista española, con breves descripciones.
