Arqueología de la guerra en la costa de los Andes Septentrionales
Guerras y conflictos entre grupos culturales sudamericanos han sido poco estudiados, propiciando una visión idealizada sobre las sociedades prehispánicas. En el presente trabajo se analiza el equipamiento del guerrero representado en el arte escultórico de la cultura Jama Coaque (45 AC-1634 dC), basándose en la revisión de fuentes etnohistóricas, principalmente crónicas de la Conquista, y en el análisis iconográfico de estas estatuillas en colecc…
Cacao Was Also Consumed in the Andean Region
Over the past few decades, the focus on the geographic origin of cacao has shifted from Mesoamerica to the Upper Amazon region of Ecuador. Recent research clarifies the trajectory of cacao, tracing its circulation from this Amazonian origin area to the Ecuadorian coast and subsequently to Mesoamerica. However, the presence of cacao in the Andean valleys has remained elusive and largely unstudied until now. This paper presents the first evidence o…
Discovering the dietary practices of pre-Hispanic Quito-Ecuador
Quiénes vivían al este de los chonos
Early colonial documents suggest that the area between the high alluvial plains of the Guayas River and the western Andean piedmont of Bolívar Province was inhabited by the Chono society. During the chronological period known as "Integration" (500 AD to European contact), this group has been associated with the Milagro-Quevedo material culture. To date, few archaeological research has been conducted in this area. However, the studies we recently …
Importance of glycoalkaloids analysis (α-solanine and α-chaconine) derived from potato consumption in pre-Hispanic inhabitants of the Americas
In the pre-Columbian societies of the Americas, a wide range of food practices was observed. However, several countries shared certain staple foods, such as the potato, which has held a significant place in the diet since ancient times. It is important to note that potatoes contain glycoalkaloids, a class of alkaloids with potential toxicity risks when consumed in high concentrations by both humans and animals. This study aims to offer guidance o…
Pre-Hispanic Periods and Diet Analysis of the Inhabitants of the Quito Plateau (Ecuador)
In all of the different historical periods during its development, the pre-Hispanic inhabitants of the Quito plateau and its valleys used the flora and fauna for food and the development of their society. The objective of this study is to review the chronological periods that correspond to the territory of the current city of Quito, as well as the possible diet, and the toxic substances to which the inhabitants could be exposed. The main archeolo…
