Evolution of Diet and the Food Economy in Peru and Ecuador
Ecuador and Peru embrace a large and diverse mountainous landscape stretching from the equator to 18 degrees south latitude. Besides the bounty of protein available from the sea, there are no concentrations of natural food resources that could sustain more than a very small population. Yet it is here that the Inka Empire, the largest and most centralized state in the Pre-Columbian Americas, arose. Beginning with the occupation of the region durin…
Directly dated starch residues document early formative maize ( Zea mays L.) in tropical Ecuador
The study of maize ( Zea mays L.) domestication has advanced from questions of its origins to the study—and debate—of its dietary role and the timing of its dispersal from Mexico. Because the investigation of maize's spread is hampered by poor preservation of macrobotanical remains in the Neotropics, research has focused on microbotanical remains whose contexts are often dated by association, leading some to question the dates assigned. Furthermo…
Archaeology of Formative Ecuador
Recent Advances in the Archaeology of the Northern Andes
Beginnings of Sedentism in the Lowlands of Northwestern South America
Formative Settlement Patterns in the Valdivia Valley, SW Coastal Ecuador
The prevailing view of the Formative in Ecuador is of a period characterized by precocious development and transformation. Initially, the Early Formative (Valdivia) period is marked by a very early appearance of ceramics associated with large U-shaped or circular villages reminiscent of Tropical Forest Culture in the Amazon Basin. Subsequently, through the Valdivia period, these villages assumed an increasingly ceremonial function, while much of …

Moundbuilders of the Amazon
Leishmaniasis and Inca settlement in the Peruvian jungle
Quimpiri, a Ceramic Style From the Peruvian Montaña
The Maritime Foundations of Andean Civilization
Moseley's contention that coastal Peruvian civilization was founded on a maritime subsistence economy is challenged, and the evidence that he used to substantiate his claim is re-examined. It is argued that: (1) the number of calories represented by the faunal remains in the late preceramic sites of the central coast is too few to have supported more than a simple hunter-gatherer society; (2) the potential productivity of the agricultural food pl…
A Huari Ceramic Tapir Foot
Ceramic Ecology of the Ayacucho Basin, Peru
The paper examines some of the interrelationships of environment and ceramic specialization in the area around the village of Quinua, Department of Ayacucho,Peru. The study reveals that agricultural land dependent on rainfall provides a significant limiting factor in the development of full-time ceramic specialization. Furthermore, the complex series of Quinua ceramic styles depends upon a diverse set of ceramic resources which are mined nearby i…
