Los kumiai residen en San José de la Zorra, los pai pai en Santa Catarina, los cochimís en La Huerta y los kiliwas en el ejido Arroyo de León, en la región serrana de San Pedro Mártir De acuerdo con el Sistema Nacional de Indicadores sobre la Población Indígena de México, en 2000, mil 350 personas conformaban las cinco etnias nativas de Baja California, de las cuales 80 eran kiliwas (sólo cinco, todos mayores de 70 años de edad, son hablantes de su lengua madre); 400 pai pai, 360 kumiais, 260 cucapás y 240 cochimís. Hace unos 3 mil años penetraron a Baja California varias corrientes migratorias provenientes del sur de Estados Unidos. Eran grupos de filiación lingüística yumana. Durante milenios se mantuvieron nómadas y su economía dependió básicamente de la recolección, complementada con productos de la caza y la pesca. Entre las montañas y el desierto, recorrían grandes distancias recogiendo bellotas, semillas, tunas, piñones, agaves y frutos de la manzanita y la guata. Con el tiempo aquellos hombres se agruparon en distintas bandas y cada una procuró delimitar su territorio.

Obsidian artifacts were typically made from materials from the closest geological source, creating a distinct north-south pattern of obsidian distribution.

Cabe señalar que a veces, el que un boletín presente en un volumen del anuario INVeNTaRio aNTROPOLÓGICO, no vuelva a aparecer en el si­ guiente, significa que dejó de publicarse por un tiempo o para siempre, pero otras veces esto se debe solamente a que se perdió el contacto entre el anuario y los editores de la publicación en cuestión.

  • This Proposal for the Geometric Analysis of Yuman Vessel Forms Departs from Malcolm Rogers’ Work on Ceramics
    GEOMETRIC PROPOSAL FOR THE CLASSIFICATION OF PREHISTORIC AND MODERN YUMAN VESSELS, THEIR CHRONOLOGY, DEVELOPMENT, AND ASSOCIATION WITH THE EXTENT OF SEDENTISM OF THEIR TRIBES ANTONIO PORCAYO MICHELINI CENTRO INAH BAJA CALIFORNIA This proposal for the geometric analysis of Yuman vessel forms departs from Malcolm Rogers’ work on ceramics. It regroups, rearranges, and defines the parameters of vessel forms in order to understand their development from prehistory up to present, including the surviving Yuman ceramic tradition of the Baja California Paipai and the recently revived Cocopa pottery. It is also a field guide for the chronological categorization of archaeological sites using the ceramic forms identified in situ and the identification of the diachronic and synchronic extent of sedentism of Yuman tribes. This proposal or visual guide for ceramic forms is the result of 11 years of field and lab experience with archaeological and modern Baja California Yuman ceramics with the Centro INAH Baja California (Porcayo 2007, 2008a, 2008b, 2009a, 2009b, 2009c, 2010, 2013, 2014a, 2014b, 2014c, 2015; Porcayo and Moranchel 2014; Porcayo and Rojas 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014; Porcayo et al. 2014; Graham et al. 2014; Téllez et al. 2014). It is a response to the fact that the parameters to differentiate basic Yuman forms had not been defined; therefore it is often the case that it is unknown when a bowl becomes an olla, and when an olla becomes a jar. It is simple, but until now there has not been a practical way to clearly understand these differences. The formal classifications by Malcolm Rogers (1945) and Michael Waters (1982a) have been traditionally used by Baja California archaeologists to identify ceramic form and chronology in our archaeological collections.

Cannatella Phylogeny, Biogeography and Systematics of Menodora (Oleaceae) and The Chloroplast Genome of Pelargonium × hortorum by Timothy Wayne Chumley, B. S., M. S. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2007 Acknowledgements While there are many people deserving of recognition for their assistance and support during the process of completing this research, I can mention here only a few. First, without a doubt, I would like to thank Irene for her love and support over the years, and without whom this process might never have started, and certainly would not have ended. I thank my mother, Marilyn Chumley, for her love and support as well, especially after the death of my father, Don Chumley; I trust that he would be proud of this accomplishment. My advisor, Dr. Robert K. Jansen and my cohort of labmates deserve mention for providing a fun and challenging environment. Jan Barber, Romey Haberle, Barbara Goodson, and Micheal J. Moore all provided excellent advice, discussion or feedback in the lab or field. Everyone who went into the field with me needs a special award, particularly if the Land Cruiser decided to break down on that particular trip; Geoff Denny gets kudos for the Monterrey experience, when we, like an old submarine, ran only on batteries, and Mike gets some kudos for the Deerslayer episode, and the many, many beers and many, many miles, usually not at the same time of course.

  • This Article Describes Macroscopic and Microscopic Analyses Of
    PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS OF CERAMICS RECOVERED FROM EL VALLECITO DURING THE SEVENTH FIELD SEASON OF THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE REGISTRY AND RESCUE PROJECT OF BAJA CALIFORNIA MICHELLE D. GRAHAM SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY ANTONIO PORCAYO MICHELINI INSTITUTO NACIONAL DE ANTROPOLOGÍA E HISTORIA, MEXICALI, BAJA CALIFORNIA MARGIE M. BURTON SAN DIEGO ARCHAEOLOGICAL CENTER, ESCONDIDO, CALIFORNIA This article describes macroscopic and microscopic analyses of archaeological ceramics recovered from El Vallecito in 2012 by the Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia (INAH) during the seventh field season of the Archaeological Site Registry and Rescue Project of Baja California, Phase of the Municipality of Mexicali. The three El Vallecito rock shelter sites of El Corral, La Explanada, and La Cueva del Indio were excavated and have been radiocarbon dated to approximately 500 B.P. We summarize the history of archaeological research at El Vallecito and describe the excavations conducted in the summer of 2012. We present the results of a macroscopic ceramic analysis and introduce a thin- section petrographic study involving 18 sherds from the three sites, as well as a stratified sample of 22 sherds from the rock shelter at El Corral. The ceramic material from El Vallecito will be compared with the existing database of previously analyzed material from southern California and northern Baja California to determine raw material procurement and ceramic production locations, with the aim of investigating the nature of Kumeyaay habitation at the sites and identifying potential inter-site relationships across the Mexico-U.S. border. The archaeological zone of El Vallecito is located in the Peninsular Range mountains, 66 km east of Tecate in La Rumorosa, Baja California (Figure 1).
