After the previous publications on the earthworks and geoglyphs 1, let us survey specific area with more details. Here we show satellite imagery, enhanced with freely available image processing software, of the area near Sillustani, the peninsula of the Laguna Umayo, in Puno region of Peru. Besides Sillustani, interesting places are the Mesa Isla, Atuncalla and Machacmarca. The images we show are coming from the Google Maps (in few cases from the ACME Google service). The coordinates are inserted in the images, and also the scales. Sillustani is the peninsula marked with the white label in the figure. At the top of the peninsula there is a tall chullpa, about 12m high. According to scholars, Sillustani is a pre-Incan burial. Tombs are built above ground in tower-like structures called chullpas.

Nuestras excavaciones se concentraron en las torres funerarias (chullpas) monumentales y sus áreas asociadas, ofreciendo evidencia de la existencia de prácticas sociales que reprodujeron asimetrías económicas, políticas e ideológicas entre Inkas y lupakas. Dicha asimetría social no sólo se dio entre la sociedad dominada (Lupaka) y la dominante (Inka), sino también en el seno de la misma sociedad Lupaka, un proceso histórico que trascendió a la ocupación inka de la zona. Palabras claves: asimetría social, coerción, ideología, lupakas, chullpas. This paper describes archaeological research carried out in Cutimbo (Puno-Peru), a prehispanic settlement occupied during the Altiplano Period (1,100-1,470 A.D.) and re-occuppied durig the Inka epoch (1,470-1,532 A.D.). Our excavations focus on the monumental funerary towers (chullpas) and related areas which offered evidence consistent with the existence of economic, political and ideological asymmetries between Inkas and lupakas. This social asymmetry not only existed between dominant society (Inka) and dominated society (Lupaka) but also within Lupaka society, a historical process trascending the Inka occupation of the area.

  • Los Sarcófagos Y Los Mausoleos Preincas En Chachapoyas Pre-Inca Sarcophagi and Mausoleums in Chachapoyas
    42 Los sarcófagos y los mausoleos preincas en Chachapoyas Pre-inca Sarcophagi and Mausoleums in Chachapoyas Ángela Brachetti-Tschohl Doctora en Antropología Resumen: La arquitectura funeraria de los chachapoyas de época preinca se caracteriza por la presencia de dos formas de enterramiento: el mausoleo o tumba colectiva, y el sarcófago, sepulcro unipersonal de aspecto humano. Todos los sitios funerarios, tanto de mausoleos como de sarcófagos, tienen en común el encontrarse en lugares aislados y en lo alto de las montañas, en precipicios, grutas o galerías, siendo la mayoría inaccesibles. Palabras clave: mundo andino amazónico, creencias funerarias preincas, arquitectura funera- ria, etnohistoria. Abstract: The funeral architecture of the Chachapoyas, in pre-Inca times, shows two forms of burial: the mausoleum –a collective tomb– and the sarcophagus, an individual sepulture with human shape. All the burial grounds of the mausoleums and sarcophagi have something in common: they are found in isolated places at the top of the cliffs of the mountains, most of them unreachable, in caves or underground passages. Keywords: Andean world in Amazonia, the pre-Inca funerary beliefs, funeral architecture, Ethno-history. I. La zona de Chachapoyas La región de Chachapoyas se encuentra en los Andes Amazónicos del Perú y fue conquistada, en 1475, por el inca Tupac Yupanqui, quien combatió contra la fiera resistencia de los chacha- poyas. Tupac Yupanqui quemó varias aldeas en su recorrido hacia el norte y redujo otras muchas pequeñas a lo largo del camino. Más tarde, el siguiente gobernante, el inca Huayna Capac, desterró a más pueblos de la región de Chachapoyas. Muchos de los cronistas españoles como Cieza de León (1554), Sarmiento de Gamboa (1572), Acosta (1590) o Garcilaso de la Vega (1609) mencionan la provincia de Chachapoyas en la época de la conquista española, con breves descripciones.

    BOLETÍNLOS DE CENTROSARQUEOLOGÍA DE PEREGRINAJE PUCP, N.° 6,COMO 2002, MECANISMOS 265-275 DE INTEGRACIÓN POLÍTICA... 265 LOS CENTROS DE PEREGRINAJE COMO MECANISMOS DE INTEGRACIÓN POLÍTICA EN SOCIEDADES COMPLEJAS DEL ALTIPLANO DEL TITICACA Edmundo de la Vega* y Charles Stanish** Resumen Las peregrinaciones a lugares sagrados fueron una práctica común en diversas sociedades andinas prehispánicas. Las islas del Sol y de la Luna, en el lado sur del lago Titicaca, se interpolan en una de las más importantes rutas de peregrinación que impusieron los incas como parte de su política de dominio estatal. De igual modo, los centros funerarios de Cutimbo y Sillustani, pertenecientes a los señoríos Lupaqa y Colla respectivamente, convocaron peregrinaciones anuales en el marco de ceremonias de culto a los antepasados. Utilizando documentación etnohistórica e información arqueológica, referentes a tales centros de peregrinaje, se discute la hipótesis sobre el uso de las peregrinaciones como mecanismos ideológicos de control social y político por parte de sociedades complejas. Abstract CENTERS OF PILIGRIMAGE AS MECHANISMS OF POLITICAL INTEGRATION IN COMPLEX SOCIETIES IN TITICACA’S ALTIPLANO Pilgrimages to sacred places were a common practice in many prehispanic Andean societies. For example, the islands of the Sun and the Moon, located in southern Lake Titicaca, formed one of the most important pilgrimage routes imposed by the Inca state as part of its politics of state domain. Similarly, the mortuary centers of Cutimbo and Sillustani, belonging respectively to the Lupaqa and Colla chiefdoms, re- ceived annual pilgrimages as part of cult ceremonies dedicated to the ancestors. Using ethnohistorical documentation and archaeological information with regard to such pilgrimage centers, we discuss the hypothesis that the pilgrimages served as ideological mechanisms of social and politi- cal control on the part of complex societies.
