Early human foraging paleoecology in the highlands of Potosí, Bolivia
For centuries the Cerro Rico of Potosí in the South American Andes has been known as the richest silver mine in the world but also as a notoriously challenging place for human habitation due to its extreme elevation. Nevertheless, little is known about the temporal depth and socioecological dynamics associated with the initial occupation of this region. In this paper, we present an archaeological and paleoecological assessment of the earliest hum…
Late Pleistocene Lithic Procurement and Geochemical Characterization of the Cerro Kaskio Obsidian Source in South‐western Bolivia
Primary questions regarding the foraging behaviour of the first hunter–gatherers who colonized the New World are how they found, procured and utilized high‐quality raw materials for manufacturing stone tools. In this paper, we present evidence from the late Pleistocene site of Cueva Bautista in the highlands of south‐western Bolivia, which demonstrates that a substantial portion of the recovered stone tool assemblage originated in Cerro Kaskio, a…
Mobility, subsistence, and technological strategies of early Holocene hunter-gatherers in the Bolivian Altiplano
High-altitude adaptation and late Pleistocene foraging in the Bolivian Andes
Transformations in ritual practice and social interaction on the Tiwanaku periphery
Ritual practices and their associated material paraphernalia played a key role in extending the reach and ideological impact of early states. The discovery of a leather bag containing snuffing tablets and traces of psychoactive substances at Cueva del Chileno in the southern Andes testifies to the adoption of Tiwanaku practices by emergent local elites. Tiwanaku control spread over the whole of the south-central Andes during the Middle Horizon (A…

Tecnología Lítica Y Estrategias De Subsistencia Durante Los Períodos Arcaico Y Formativo en El Altiplano Central, Bolivia
Los cambios producidos en los sistemas de subsistencia de caza-recoleccin al cultivo de plantas y crianza de camlidos constituyen una de las transiciones ms interesantes en la arqueologa del altiplano andino. En este reporte se presentan resultados preliminares del anlisis de patrones de asentamiento y materiales lticos recuperados en la regin de Iroco, el margen noreste del Lago Uru-Uru, en el altiplano central de Bolivia. Los cambios producidos…
Regional Settlement Patterns in the Tiwanaku Valley of Bolivia
Regional settlement patterns from the formative through Post-Classic Tiwanaku periods (1500 B.C.–A.C. 1100) in the Tiwanaku Valley of Bolivia arc explored. Ecological considerations, rank-size interpretations, and some aspects of central place theory are incorporated into this investigation of the evolution of regional social and political organization of the Tiwanaku polity. Taken together; the analyses point away from reconstructions of the Tiw…
Tiwanaku Settlement System
This study reports on changing settlement patterns in the lower Tiwanaku Valley during the Formative (1500 B. C.-A. D. 100), Classic (A. D. 400-800), and Postclassic (A. D. 800-1100) periods. Based on the association of agricultural features with these site distributions, as well as the consideration of ethnohistoric and ethnographic information, it is argued that fundamental principles of the political and economic organization of the Aymara ayl…
