THESIS Wesley Durrell Stoner The Graduate School University of Kentucky 2002 COARSE ORANGE POTTERY EXCHANGE IN SOUTHERN VERACRUZ: A COMPOSITIONAL PERSPECTIVE ON CENTRALIZED CRAFT PRODUCTION AND EXCHANGE IN THE CLASSIC PERIOD A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Kentucky Written by: Wesley Durrell Stoner iv ABSTRACT OF THESIS COARSE ORANGE POTTERY EXCHANGE IN SOUTHERN VERACRUZ: A COMPOSITIONAL PERSPECTIVE ON CENTRALIZED CRAFT PRODUCTION AND EXCHANGE IN THE CLASSIC PERIOD This research seeks to elucidate the role of relatively large-scale ceramic production industries located at the Classic period center of Matacapan in the Sierra de los Tuxtlas, Southern Veracruz, Mexico. Arnold et al. (1993) have suggested that the specialized production at Comoapan, the largest production locality at Matacapan, was oriented toward supplying the region with ceramics. This production locality overwhelmingly specialized in manufacturing one standardized ware, Coarse Orange, into necked and neckless jars, which are found in many parts of the region. The compositional techniques of instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and petrography were employed to investigate the distribution of this ware. Control groups were sampled from known production loci at Matacapan. The data does reveal strong evidence that Coarse Orange was traded from Matacapan to other sites in the Tuxtlas. Comoapan was the most likely producer for this trade. Equally as important, this research yielded several different compositional groups, which indicates sites that either did not interact with Matacapan to procure this ware, or who produced their own varieties of Coarse Orange. While Matacapan seems to have had economic influence over parts of the Tuxtlas, the distribution of non-Matacapan compositional groups is useful to delineate areas of the Tuxtlas who display minimal economic interaction with this regional center. KEYWORDS: Ceramics, Craft Specialization, Compositional Sourcing, Political Economy, Prehistoric Exchange Wesley Durrell Stoner 12/10/02 COARSE ORANGE POTTERY EXCHANGE IN SOUTHERN VERACRUZ: A COMPOSITIONAL PERSPECTIVE ON CENTRALIZED CRAFT PRODUCTION AND EXCHANGE IN THE CLASSIC PERIOD A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Kentucky Wesley Durrell Stoner Director of Graduate Studies: Mary Anglin Director of Thesis Committee: Christopher A. Pool Copyright by Wesley Durrell Stoner 2002 Dedicated to my wife: Rebecca Kneedler ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This research could not have been completed without the help of many people and institutions. First, the Missouri University Research Reactor (MURR) and the National Science Foundation provided a generous discount to mitigate the cost of instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA). MURR conducted the procedures necessary to derive the chemical data used in this thesis. Hector Neff and Michael Glascock were very amenable throughout the whole process, and provided many pointers on the basics of the technique. Moreover, they were very helpful and contributed much to the final interpretations presented herein. I must thank the Instituto Nacional de Antropologia e Historia of Mexico and the regional office in Veracruz for granting me permission to sample archived ceramics and take the material out of the country for analysis. Prior to that permission, however, Robert Santley, Phillip J. Arnold III, Javier Urcid, Thomas Killion, and Chris Pool granted me permission to sample the ceramics from previously conducted archaeological projects. These five individuals also provided invaluable information and assistance in navigating through the collections and generally getting around in Veracruz. All of these archaeologists also provided background data essential to my interpretations. All three of my committee members at the University of Kentucky, Chris Pool, Tom Dillehay, and Richard Jefferies, provided very insightful comments and criticisms on early drafts of this thesis, all of which I have attempted to integrate into the final version. Barbara Stark also supplied helpful comments as a discussant for a preliminary paper presented at the Society for American Archaeology conference (2002). Chris Pool, in particular, is to be commended for assistance at every stage of this project, from proposal writing to final editing. Chris's considerable knowledge of the geology and archaeology of the region proved to be my greatest source of information throughout the entire study. Finally, my wife, Rebecca Kneedler, provided the emotional and financial support to see this project through to the end. None of the individuals credited in this section, however, are responsible for any of the mistakes in the interpretations that may still exist in the thesis. Any errors are my sole responsibility. iii Table of Contents ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS...........................................................................................................iii LIST OF TABLES......................................................................................................................... vi LIST OF FIGURES ...................................................................................................................... vii LIST OF MAPS ...........................................................................................................................viii LIST OF FILES ............................................................................................................................. ix Chapter 1......................................................................................................................................... 1 The Study................................................................................................................................. 4 Organization of this Text ...................................................................................................... 12 Chapter 2....................................................................................................................................... 14 From Artifact to Exchange: Sources of Compositional Variability in Archaeological Ceramics ................................................................................................................................................... 15 Specialized Production and Exchange...................................................................................... 19 Craft specialization within the regional political economy...................................................... 26 Pottery exchange, economic competition, and political integration in the Basin of Mexico 30 Economic competition, and specialization in ancient Oaxaca.............................................. 33 Summary ................................................................................................................................... 36 Chapter 3....................................................................................................................................... 38 Physiography ............................................................................................................................ 38 Climate and Vegetation............................................................................................................. 39 Geology..................................................................................................................................... 40 Chapter 4....................................................................................................................................... 47 History of research ................................................................................................................... 48 Development of Sociopolitical Organization in the Classic Period Tuxtlas ............................ 50 The Political Economy of the Tuxtlas ....................................................................................... 52 Ceramic Production .............................................................................................................. 53 Ceramic Exchange ................................................................................................................ 66 Hypotheses for Testing.............................................................................................................. 68 Chapter 5......................................................................................................................................

  • The Begonia of Veracruz: Additions and Revisions
    Acta Botanica Mexicana 75: 77-99 (2006) THE BEGONIA OF VERACRUZ: ADDITIONS AND REVISIONS PATRICK D. MCMILLAN1, GRAHAM WYATT1 AND REKHA MORRIS2 1Clemson University, Dept. of Biological Sciences, 132 Long Hall, Box 340314, Clemson, South Carolina, U.S.A. 29634-0314 2Woodland Circle, Pendleton, South Carolina, U.S.A. ABSTRACT Field explorations and examination of herbarium specimens were utilized to docu- ment the diversity of Begonia species found within the state of Veracruz. Thirty species were found to be of native occurrence in the state. One species, Begonia involucrata is reported as new to Mexico and is disjunct from the nearest documented populations in Costa Rica. Begonia sericoneura is added as new to the state of Veracruz. Examinations of new material, live specimens and re-examination of previously collected material were utilized to revise descriptions of Begonia carolineifolia, B. involucrata, B. lyniceorum, B. sericoneura and B. sousae. Stomatal arrangements were determined for 28 of the 30 taxa. Solitary stomatal arrangements in section Gireoudia are shown to be more common than previous reports would indicate with 7 of the 18 species examined not exhibiting stomatal clusters. A key to the native taxa of the state of Veracruz is presented. Habitat, elevational and distributional patterns are also reported and discussed. Key words: Begonia, Mexico, State of Veracruz, taxonomy.

Ante ello, en 1998 se decreta la Reserva de la Biosfera de Los Tuxtlas, cuyo objetivo es preservar y desarrollar junto con la población estrategias de conservación, entre ellas, el ecoturismo. La presente investigación analiza desde un enfoque regional las contribuciones e impactos de esta actividad en materia de conservación ambiental. Para esto se aplican métodos etnográficos y se elabora una representación cartográfica, para poder comprender las conjeturas territoriales de esta actividad. Se pudo evidenciar que las iniciativas de ecoturismo han logrado generar impactos de pequeña escala en el nivel local, aunque existe todavía un potencial importante para aumentar el impacto positivo, si se lograse juntar los esfuerzos dispersos para integrarlos bajo una estrategia general a nivel regional.

  • Chamaedorea Alternans Conservation Fact Sheet
    Palm Conservation – Palm Specialist Group Chamaedorea alternans Wendl. Status: Currently not internationally listed, listed as threatened in Mexico Common name Pacaya. Natural range Chamaedorea alternans is endemic to the remaining forests of Veracruz, Mexico. These forests mark the northern limit of the tropical rainforest ecosystem and are floristically interesting due to the combination of elements from Caribbean, Central American, and mainland Mexican floras within a relatively restricted geographic area. This species is thought to be restricted to the Los Tuxtlas biosphere reserve, which includes various protected areas in the San Martín Tuxtla region of coastal Veracruz, including the Los Tuxtlas Biological Station. Detailed distributional data has yet to be collected, and much of the surrounding area has not been surveyed for this species. The Uxpanapa- Chimalapa region of Oaxaca, the northern mountain range of Chiapas and the southern range in Tabasco may all be possible new range extensions for this species if careful surveyed. Recognition characteristics Chamaedorea alternans is sympatric in the Los Tuxtlas region with seven other Chamaedorea species, C. tepejilote, C. elatior, C. ernestii-augusti, and C. oblongata, C. pinnatifrons, C. elegans and C. woodsonia, making correct taxonomic distinction somewhat difficult for an untrained eye, especially when only vegetative characters are at hand or when examining herbarium vouchers. Chamaedorea alternans is distinguished by its white-margined leaf sheaths which display distinct venation, whereas most other Chamaedorea species have green leaf sheaths that lack obvious venation. Chamaedorea alternans is a member of the subgenus Stephanostachys based both on traditional morphological studies and more modern molecular phylogenies. This species has a solitary life form and grows to approximately three meters.

Project description, type, location and schedule General description A.1 Project description and The “Sierra de Los Tuxtlas” Biosphere Reserve includes one of the proposed activities largest intact portions of moist forests in Mexico. Scientists have recorded 943 species of plants, 80 ferns, 1,272 insects, 122 reptiles and amphibians, 561 birds, and 128 mammals. Many plant and animal species present in Los Tuxtlas are endemic to Mexico or to this Eco-region. Most of the reptiles and amphibians here are restricted to small isolated areas of mountain forests. The region boasts the highest bird diversity in Mexico in terms of comparable area. It is also a refuge for many rare and threatened species that have been displaced from other areas of Mexico, including 19 endangered mammals. Nearly 90 percent of the area of these important forests has been eliminated over the last 30 years. If the current annual deforestation rate (2.87%1) continues, by 2017 more than half of the 1993 forest cover will be lost, and more than half of the biodiversity of this region is expected to be lost. With this project, carbon emission reductions will be introduced as a new product in the agro-ecosystems of the Los Tuxtlas Biosphere Reserve. The goal is to increase and diversify farmers´ sources of income and to modify the current land-use change pattern in the region while promoting and enhancing environmental services from forests.
