  • The Typology of Pamean Number Systems and the Limits of Mesoamerica As a Linguistic Area
    The typology of Pamean number systems and the limits of Mesoamerica as a linguistic area HERIBERTO AVELINO Abstract Pamean languages have been considered to be outside of the Mesoamerican linguistic area. However, the number systems of Pamean show typical Meso- american structures: order of constituents Multiplier-Base-Addend, and sys- tems with bases 10 and 20. Pamean languages have a typologically unusual, but consistent base 8. The present study presents a formal characterization of Pamean number systems. The distribution and peculiarities of Pamean number systems are explained as a result of their location at the border of a major lin- guistic area. Northern Pame has 8 as the only productive base, whereas Central Pame and Southern Pame show a greater influence of Mesoamerican traits. Keywords: cardinal numerals, linguistic area, Mesoamerica, number sys- tems, numeral, Pamean 1. Introduction In this article I present an analysis of the cardinal number systems of the Pamean languages Northern Pame, Central Pame and Southern Pame. My goals are twofold. First, I offer a formal characterization of Pamean number systems in terms of the typology of number systems. Second, I discuss the particulari- ties of Pamean number systems as a result of their location at the border of a major linguistic area, Mesoamerica.1 I show that Pamean systems present typ- ical Mesoamerican structures with the order of constituents Multiplier-Base- Addend and with bases 10 and 20. However, Northern Pame is of special inter- est for the typology of number systems owing to the consistent use of a base 8. 1. As defined by archaeologists, Pamean languages are spoken in the cultural area known as Arid-America or the Gran Chichimeca: see Di Peso (1974) and Kelly (1966) for classic ap- proaches, and several essays in Reyman (1995) for more recent studies.

    The typology of Pame number systems and the limits of Mesoamerica as a linguistic area Heriberto Avelino Department of Linguistics University of California, Berkeley 1203 Dwinelle Hall University of California at Berkeley Berkeley, CA 94720-2650 [email protected] Abstract Pamean languages have been considered to be outside of the Mesoamerican linguistic area. However, the number systems of Pame show typical Mesoamerican structures: order of constituents Multiplier-Base-Addend, and the base ‘10’, ‘20’ systems. Pamean languages have a typologically unusual, but consistent base ‘8’. The present study presents a formal characterization of Pame number systems. The distribution and peculiarities of Pame number systems are explained as a result of their location at the border of a major linguistic area. Northern Pame presents a base ‘8’ as the only productive base, whereas Central Pame and Southern Pame show a greater influence of Mesoamerican traits. keywords: Pame, Otomanguean, Mesoamerica, Number systems, linguistic areas 100 words 2 1. Introduction In this paper I present an analysis of the cardinal number systems of the Pamean languages Northern Pame, Central Pame and Southern Pame. The goals of this work are twofold. On the one hand, I offer a formal characterization of Pame number systems in terms of the typology of number systems in natural languages. On the other hand, I discuss the particularities of Pamean number systems as a result of their location at the border of a major linguistic area, namely Mesoamerica.1 I show that Pamean systems present the typical Mesoamerican structures with the order of constituents Multiplier-Base-Addend, and base ‘20’ and ‘10’ systems.

It attempts to consider what makes these moving images compelling to audiences who share an orientation to the protection and preservation of ancient artefacts. In doing so it prompts a reflection on their circulation as part of stories that get told about cultural heritage, and particularly the simple civilizational oppositions that get set up between ‘Western’ and ‘Islamic’ culture. Centring on the significance of the sensation of touch to practices of cultural inscription, it suggests that the Northern Iraq videos animate forms of synaesthesic material engagement that are denied by the modernist technologies of museum culture.

  • Reasons Why Indigenous People Migrate and Settle in Guanajuato, Mexico Perla Shiomara Del Carpio Ovando1
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 5, No. 2; February 2015 From Communities to the Cities: Reasons Why Indigenous People Migrate and Settle in Guanajuato, Mexico Perla Shiomara Del Carpio Ovando1 Ricardo Contreras Soto Daniel Vega Macías Research professors University of Guanajuato Campus Celaya-Salvatierra Abstract Introduction: Internal migration has been one of the main factors of economic and social change in Mexico. Since 1940, continuous flow of migrants from the countryside to the city strengthened the national urban system, which currently accounts for close to 71% of the population. Indigenous population is actively involved in these migration movements, often in response to poor socioeconomic conditions in their places of origin. This research investigates the reasons for migration of indigenous groups living in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico. Methods: The research is based on qualitative in-depth face-to-face interviews to a non-random sample of a population. Fieldwork was conducted from June 2013 and June 2014 in the southeastern and northeastern of Guanajuato. Main results: The research shows that a poor living condition is the main reason why indigenous people migrate and settle in Guanajuato, many of them trying to escape from extreme poverty. Other issues highlighted in the research are family and school reasons. Conclusions: Even though the motives of internal migration of indigenous groups in México have numerous points of overlap with migrations in general, such as the search for better living conditions, one aspect that distinguishes it is the strategic use of the indigenous identity in order to function and deal with, in some way, spaces and experiences of discrimination or exclusion.

  • Holding on to the Past, Preparing for the Future: Heritage and Depots in Times of Crisis and Transformation Dr
    CODART TWINTIG Warsaw, 21-23 May 2017 – Keynote Lecture 22 May Holding on to the Past, Preparing for the Future: Heritage and Depots in Times of Crisis and Transformation Dr. David Duindam, Lecturer at the University of Amsterdam Full text I would like to thank the organizers for the invitation to speak to you today.i The fact that we are standing in Warsaw is not something we can take for granted. The capital of Poland was almost completely destroyed during World War II. Much of the city was badly damaged during armed conflicts, not unlike other European cities. What was unique in the case of Warsaw was the fact that the Nazis had planned this urbicide before the war as part of their goal to completely efface Polish life and culture. After the Nazis had crushed the Polish resistance in 1944, special forces were put in charge to burn down remaining buildings with a special focus on culturally significant sites. There was no military aim: it was a form of cultural genocide. When the city was liberated, 85% of the historic center was gone. One can ask how to deal with so much emptiness; but one can also ask how to deal with such an excessive amount of history. There was some talk of relocating the city altogether, but in the end it was decided to meticulously reconstruct the historic center with the help of archives and paintings. There is an intimate relationship between the words excess and access. The theme of this congress is the role of storage facilities in light of the cornucopian excess of art objects.

  • Returning to Places of Wounded Memory-The Role of World Heritage
    THEME: THE THREATS TO THE SPIRIT OF PLACE “RETURNING TO PLACES OF WOUNDED MEMORY” The Role of World Heritage Sites in Reconciliation ALBERT OGLE Irish School of Ecumenics, Trinity College, Dublin Bea House, Milltown Park Dublin 6, Ireland [email protected] Abstract. This paper explores the emerging role of cultural heritage in community reconciliation, particularly for identity-based conflicts. I utilize theories on the relationship between place, memory, identity and violence and interdisciplinary research focused on Ohrid, Macedonia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site (WHS) and Ireland. In both countries, heritage and religion have unique roles in identity-based conflicts. I conclude with recommendations as to how UNESCO and the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) might encourage the creation of a new growing body of mediation, reconciliation and community transformation specialists who would become partners in the preservation of tangible and intangible heritage. 1. Progression of ICOMOS – from conservation to community reconciliation? The first sentence of the Venice Charter (1964) contains the concept that historic monuments are “imbued with a message from the past” and are “living witnesses” to traditions. Andrzej Tomaszewski (Tomaszewski 2003) reminds us that in the history of the conservation movement, it was only a century ago that Alois Riegl wrote about the concept of a “memorial value”. Fifty years later, Erwin Panofsky is concerned about the interpretation of material works. In this manner, an architectural monument that is the backdrop of an event is a ‘silent witness’ to that happening, and gains a new dimension of ‘memorial values’, becoming a ‘place of memory’. Tomaszewski reminds us how a recent European theory of ‘German Places of Memory’ emphasizes their symbolic function rather than their material objectification.

Anthropology Senior Theses. Paper 133. This paper is posted at ScholarlyCommons. https://repository.upenn.edu/anthro_seniortheses/133 For more information, please contact [email protected]. The Genetic History Of The Otomi In The Central Mexican Valley Abstract The Otomí, or Hñäñhü, is an indigenous ethnic group in the Central Mexican Valley that has been historically marginalized since before Spanish colonization. To investigate the extent by which historical, geographic, linguistic, and cultural influences shaped biological ancestry, I analyzed the genetic variation of 224 Otomí individuals residing in thirteen Otomí villages. Results indicate that the majority of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplotypes belong to the four major founding lineages, A2, B2, C1, and D1, reflecting an overwhelming lack of maternal admixture with Spanish colonizers. Results also indicate that at an intra-population level, neither geography nor linguistics played a prominent role in shaping maternal biological ancestry. However, at an inter-population level, geography was found to be a more influential determinant. Comparisons of Otomí genetic variation allow us to reconstruct the ethnic history of this group, and to place it within a broader-based Mesoamerican history.
