The diverse nature of evidence and disciplinary ap- proaches drawn upon by these contributions – archaeology, iconography, ethnohisto- ry and ethnography, among others – reveal the richness of this field of study, and are at the same time a countermeasure to the tendency toward too much specialization al- luded to above. The promotion of such diversity is one of the objectives of the series. The editors would like to thank the following persons for their collaboration in the making of this volume: Mark Howell, Linda O’Brien-Rothe, and Paola Ketmaier for the thorough review of the orthography and style of some of the texts; Christiane Clados, Anna Gruszczynska-Ziółkowska, and Friedemann Schmidt for the helpful comments on questions of content; Ingo Stahl-Blood for the masterly layout; Frank Fischer and Mariusz Zielinski for the ample advices regarding printing. Guatemala / Berlin, November 30, 2013 Matthias Stöckli & Arnd Adje Both, Editors Prefacio Los editores se complacen en presentar el segundo volumen de la serie “Flower World: Music Archaeology of the Americas – Mundo Florido: Arqueomusicología de las Américas”. Al igual que el primer volumen incluye ocho contribuciones en español o inglés que tratan de una amplia gama de temas acerca de artefactos sonoros, música, canto y danza provenientes de América del Sur, América Central y América del Norte. La naturaleza variada de la evidencia presentada y la diversidad de los acercamien- tos disciplinarios – desde la arqueología, iconografía, etnohistoria y etnografía, entre otros – muestran la riqueza de este campo de estudios, a la vez que contrarrestan la tendencia a demasiada especialización a la que aludimos anteriormente. Promover di- cha diversidad es uno de los objetivos de la serie. Los editores quisieran agradecer a las siguientes personas por su colaboración en el presente tomo: a Mark Howell, Linda O’Brien-Rothe y Paola Ketmaier por la revisión detenida de la ortografía y el estilo de algunos de los textos; a Christiane Clados, Anna Gruszczynska-Ziółkowska y Friedemann Schmidt por los comentarios útiles sobre al- gunas cuestiones de contenido; a Ingo Stahl-Blood por el diseño magistral; y a Frank Fischer y Mariusz Zielinski por los consejos referente a la impresión. Ciudad de Guatemala / Berlín, 30 de Noviembre de 2013 Matthias Stöckli & Arnd Adje Both, Editores Flower World - Music Archaeology of the Americas, vol. 2 11 Staging Sound Acoustic Reflections on Inca Music, Architecture and Performance Spaces* Henry Stobart This study explores connections between Inca musical performance practices and acoustic spac- es. Drawing on historical sources, and informed by contemporary ethnographic perspectives, it considers a variety of Inca performance contexts. As a starting point it examines the large ushnu platforms that were built by the Incas in several parts of the empire, arguing that rather than acting as “stages” for musical performance per se, such monuments probably served as im- portant foci for ceremonial activity, involving participatory music and dance. The existence of outside and inside music making is then considered, with various examples examined to raise questions about how Inca musical sonorities were adapted to particular acoustic environments. In turn, it is speculated whether the Incas developed an elite chamber music culture – adapted to resonant interior spaces – comparable to that of, for example, medieval Europe. El presente estudio investiga las relaciones entre las prácticas musicales inca y los espacios acús- ticos en los que éstas solían realizarse. Basándose en fuentes históricas y aplicando perspecti- vas etnográficas contemporáneas el estudio cubre una variedad de contextos musicales. Como punto de partida sirven las grandes plataformas ushnu, construidas por los inca en varias par- tes de su imperio, al respecto de las cuales se argumenta que más que “escenarios” para la eje- cución musical en sí tales monumentos representaban probablemente centros importantes para la realización de ceremonias, incluyendo prácticas musicales y danzarias de carácter comunita- rio. Luego se toma en consideración la existencia de actividades musicales llevadas a cabo tan- to fuera como dentro de espacios cerrados. A partir de diversos ejemplos se plantean pregun- tas acerca de cómo las sonoridades musicales inca se adaptaron a ambientes acústicos particu- lares. También se pone a especular si los inca hayan desarrollado una cultura élite de música de cámara – adaptada a espacios cerrados resonantes – comparable, por ejemplo, a la de la Europa medieval. It is hard to believe that the Incas would have erment and even transcendence, as the sound of been indifferent to the sonic implications of res- his or her voice or instrument is reinforced, in- onant spaces.

In order to understand the complexity of climate change in the Kallawaya region beyond Western ontological principles the latter is of great importance. The Northern Bolivian Kallawaya refer to changes in climate as a complex of changes in local human-human and human- environmental relations based on a rupture of a certain morality and reciprocal relationship in an animate world in which music plays an important role.

  • 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.

  • 1 Continuities and Disjunctures in Urban
    CONTINUITIES AND DISJUNCTURES IN URBAN PLANNING IN THE ANCIENT ANDES Jerry D. Moore DO NOT CITE IN ANY CONTEXT WITHOUT PERMISSION OF THE AUTHOR Jerry D. Moore, Department of Anthropology, California State University Dominguez Hills 1000 E. Victoria St., Carson, CA 90747 ([email protected]) 1 A comparative analysis of prehispanic Andean cities indicates significant discontinuities in the organization of public space. Although architectonic components and architectural inventories recur in different urban traditions, there are marked differences in the overall plans of Andean cities and little continuity between the earliest Andean urban centers and earlier Formative settlements or between later capitals and cities associated with various Andean states and empires, such as Moche, Tiwanaku, Wari, Chan Chan or Cuszco. This suggests that the prehispanic Andean city was developed divergently and employed different principles of urban design, and that Andean societies deployed different forms of what Eric Wolf called “structural power,” in which the urban landscapes were the settings for different forms of power interactions through Andean prehistory. 2 The Central Andes have an urban tradition that is among the oldest known in the world (Figure 1). With the appearance of large settlements during the 3rd – 2nd millennia B.C. along the Peruvian coast, a constructed legacy began that rivals ancient Mesopotamian cities and antedates by at least a millennium the development of Mesoamerican urbanism (Makowski 2008). Yet, a diachronic perspective suggests that prehistoric urbanism was a fragile and inconstant process in the Andes, as prehistoric communities aggregated and dispersed, presumably in response to a range of social and environmental pressures.

    1 2 3 Los aymara en Bolivia Los aymara, en el Estado Plurinacional de Bolivia, se encuentran en los suyus (regiones) de Jach’a Karangas y Jach’a Suyu Pakajaqis, que en la actualidad están ubicados en los departamentos La Paz, Oruro y en la parte occidental de Potosí. Jach’a Karangas está conformado por doce markas (municipios): Totora, Choquecota, Curahuara, Turco, Huayllamarka, Mayacht’asita, Corque, Sabaya, Huachacalla, Andamarka, Orinoca y Rivera, que reúnen a más de 150 ayllus (comunidades), establecidas en 18 municipios y 8 provincias del departamento de Oruro. Este suyu no sufrió la fragmentación total de su territorio, sobreviviendo en calidad de pueblo originario aymará. Las markas están divididas en dos parcialidades, que son urinsaya y aransaya, a excepción de Corquemarka, en donde son samancha y uravi, respectivamente. La muyt’a (el rodeo) territorial, costumbre milenaria de la cultura aymara y singularmente de Karangas, es uno de los valores que se conserva actualmente en los ayllus y markas (sistema de autoridad). La música autóctona es diversa en cada una de las markas; su interpretación se mantiene según el tiempo y está sujeta al calendario agrícola ganadero, sobre todo en los ritos a los centros ceremoniales en lugares sagrados en cada una de las doce markas. El origen de este suyu es anterior a la llegada de los incas, aproximadamente en el siglo XII. El “señorío” de los Karangas, como los denominaron los españoles, comprendió un territorio ubicado en distintos pisos ecológicos: en el altiplano, que corresponde al actual espacio ocupado, y en valles interandinos y de la costa pacífica.
