  • Agua Caliente, Espacialidad Y Arquitectura En Una Comunidad Nucleada Antigua De Costa Rica
    31 Cuadernos de Antropología No.19, 31-55, 2009 AGUA CALIENTE, ESPACIALIDAD Y ARQUITECTURA EN UNA COMUNIDAD NUCLEADA ANTIGUA DE COSTA RICA Jeffrey Peytrequín Gómez* RESUMEN En este artículo se presentan las particularidades de un sitio arqueológi- co ubicado en el Valle Central Oriental de Costa Rica, Agua Caliente de Cartago (C-35AC). Alrededor del 600 d.C., esta comunidad se constituyó en un centro político-ideológico con un ordenamiento espacial que permitió el despliegue de diversas actividades; dichas actividades son el reflejo de relaciones sociales a nivel cacical. En Agua Caliente se erigieron varias es- tructuras habitacionales, así como muros de contención de aguas, calzadas y vastos cementerios. Además, todas estas manifestaciones arquitectónicas comparten un tipo de construcción específico. De tal manera, la cultura material recuperada apunta a Agua Caliente como un espacio significativo dentro de la dinámica cultural de esta región de Costa Rica. Palabras claves: Arquitectura, técnicas constructivas, montículos, calza- das, dique. ABSTRACT This article explores the architectural specificities of Agua Caliente de Car- tago (C-35AC), an archaeological site located in the Costa Rica’s central area. This community, circa 600 A.D., was an ideological-political center with a spatial distribution that permitted diverse activities to take place. These practices reflect rank social relations at a chiefdom level. Several dwelling structures were at Agua Caliente, as were stone wall dams, paved streets and huge cemeteries. These constructions shared particular charac- teristics. The material culture suggests that this site was a significant space in the regional culture. Keywords: Architecture, building techniques, mounds, causeways, dam. * Jeffrey Peytrequín Gómez.

Two new species of Pleurothallis subsection Macrophyllae-Fasciculatae from Costa Rica are described and illustrated, and their relationships discussed. Pleurothallis pudica, from the central Pacific mountain region, is compared with P. phyllocardia, but it is easily recognized by the densely pubescent- hirsute flowers. Pleurothallis luna-crescens, from the Caribbean slope of the Talamanca chain, is compared with P. radula and P. rectipetala, from which it is distinguished by the dark purple flowers and the distinctly longer, dentate petals, respectively. A key to the species of the group in Costa Rica and western Panama is presented. KEY WORDS: flora of Costa Rica, new species, Pleurothallidinae,Pleurothallis phyllocardia group Introduction. The species of Pleurothallis R.Br. can be distinguished. Even excluding the group that close to Humboltia cordata Ruiz & Pavón (1978) [= Wilson and collaborators (2011, 2013) characterized as Pleurothallis cordata (Ruiz & Pav.) Lindl.] represent the “Mesoamerican clade” of Pleurothallis, consisting one of the largest groups of taxa within the genus (Luer of fairly small plants and mostly non-resupinate flowers 2005).

The Capellades fault connects with the Aguacaliente fault through the Cartago transpressive zone, including E-W folds and oblique (reverse-left lateral) faults. The Ochomogo fault is located between south San José and the southern slopes of the Irazú Volcano, is about 22 km long, and has a nearly left lateral strike slip along its E-W trend to an oblique (normal-left-lateral) slip along its ENE trending part. The interaction between the Ochomogo and Aguacaliente faults results in a transtensional regime that formed the Coris and Guarco valleys. The Capellades fault trends ENE to NE, is about 25 km long, and is located in the southern and southeastern slopes of the Irazú and Turrialba volcanoes. Several geomorphic features show between few meters to 0.67 km of left-lateral displacements along the Capellades fault trace.

    AMENAZAS DE ORIGEN NATURAL CANTÓN DE TURRIALBA AMENAZAS HIDROMETEOROLÓGICAS DEL CANTÓN DE TURRIALBA El Cantón de Turrialba posee una red fluvial bien definida, la misma cuenta con un conjunto de ríos y quebradas que son el punto focal de las amenazas hidrometeorológicas del cantón, dicha red de drenaje está compuesta principalmente por los ríos: Turrialba, Colorado, Aquiares, Reventazón, Tuis, Pacuare, Atirro, Guayabo y las quebradas Poró, Gamboa, El Túnel y La Leona en La Suiza. De estos ríos y quebradas algunos, han disminuido el período de recurrencia de inundaciones a un año, o incluso a períodos menores, lo anterior por causa de la ocupación de las planicies de inundación, y el desarrollo urbano en forma desordenada y sin ninguna planificación, y al margen de las leyes de desarrollo urbano y Forestal. Así mismo, el lanzado de desechos sólidos a los cauces, a redundando en la reducción de la capacidad de la sección hidráulica, lo que provoca el desbordamiento de ríos y quebradas. Situación empeorada por los serios problemas de construcción de viviendas cercanas a los ríos en el cantón de Turrialba. Las zonas o barrios más afectados y alto riesgo por las inundaciones de los ríos y quebradas antes mencionadas son: La Alegría, Mon Río, La Margot, San Rafael, Turrialba Centro, Dominica, Pastor, Alto Cruz, Guaria, Repasto, Isabel, Aquiares, Tuis, La Suiza, Canadá, Leona, Esperanza, Atirro, Guayabo, Poró, San Cayetano y Américas. Recomendaciones. Debido a que el mayor problema que generan las inundaciones, es por la ocupación de las planicies de inundación de los ríos, con asentamientos formales e informales, la deforestación de las cuencas altas y medias, la falta de programas de uso sostenible de recursos naturales se recomienda que: 1.

  • Farmers' Perceptions of Trees on Their Land in the Santa Cruz Area, Biological Corridor Volcanica Central-Talamanca, Costa
    Lucile Chamayou Exam Number 111391 September 2011 Farmers’ perceptions of trees on their land in the Santa Cruz area, Biological Corridor Volcanica Central-Talamanca, Costa Rica MSc Conservation and Rural Development Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology School of Anthropology and Conservation University of Kent Canterbury, UK DICE - September 2011 Farmers’ perceptions of trees on their land in the Santa Cruz area, Biological Corridor Volcanica Central-Talamanca, Costa Rica Lucile Chamayou Abstract The Biological Corridor Volcanica Central-Talamanca aims to restore and maintain the biological connectivity between protected areas in Costa Rica. Trees outside forest such as live fences, dispersed trees within pastures and riparian areas, play productive and conservation roles and increase connectivity in the agricultural landscapes. The study aims to explore farmers’ perceptions of trees on their land in the Santa Cruz area, north-west of the biological corridor. Semi-structured interviews with key informants and farmers were conducted. Farmers maintained trees outside forest on their land and attributed diverse values to trees including technical, through the provision of live fences or shelter for cattle, economic, as a source of timber, fuelwood or fruits, and ecological, for wildlife and watershed protection but also social, cultural, aesthetic and heritage values. They reported limitations to have trees such as lack of capital, labour and land and lack of adapted species and technical assistance. More investigations are needed especially on the relation between tree cover and landscape functional connectivity. Still, local authorities and organisations including the BCVCT’s committee should ensure and encourage trees outside forest uses in the agricultural landscape through a strategic planning including the promotion of the conversion of fences to live fences, farmers training and education, technical assistance and the adaptation of existing incentives such as Payments for Ecosystem Services.
