Un soplo de aire fresco
La pandemia de Covid-19 cercenó duramente la naturalidad del movimiento, imposibilitando los desplazamientos y la normalidad de la interacción presencial. Esta no presencia de personas dejó también en soledad y silencio los espacios y construcciones representativas de los procesos socioculturales. Tras la paulatina desaparición de las restricciones, los portadores del patrimonio cultural se reencontraron a sí mismos volviendo a lo importante de s…
Obsidian Provenance Data Reveals New Insights into Archaic Lifeways in Chihuahua, Mexico
Archaeologists know less about how hunter-gatherers and early agriculturists lived during the Archaic period in the Mexican Northwest compared to the U.S. Southwest. To evaluate Archaic period mobility, lithic technology, and regional and temporal patterns in raw material procurement in northwestern Chihuahua, Mexico, we characterized the trace elemental composition of 61 obsidian artifacts from Rancho Santa María I, II, and El Peñón del Diablo u…
How to Make a Pyrite Mirror
Manufacturing Techniques of Pyrite Inlays in Mesoamerica
Manufactured Light
La pirita y su manufactura
Several pyrite inlays that shaped Prehispanic mosaic mirrors have been recovered in many Mesoamerican sites. Recent researches on these objects have been focused on their symbolic meaning, morphology, trade and use, with few studies that address their manufacturing techniques and production organization. In this paper we present the technological analysis we applied to different pyrite inlays from four Mesoamerican sites, supported by experimenta…
Pyrite-Encrusted Mirrors at Snaketown and Their External Relationships to Mesoamerica
Due to the repatriation process of 20,475 objects from the site of Snaketown, Arizona, the Arizona State Museum Snaketown Mortuary Documentation Project (2001) was conducted in 2001. This project provided the opportunity to re-analyze the material—which included more than 50 pyrite encrusted mirrors. These items are considered to be one of the most distinctive material elements of the interaction between the American Southwest/Northwest Mexico an…
The Pre-Hispanic Communities of the Onavas Valley
Despite the impressive amount of archaeological research conducted in Sonora in the last few decades, some areas remain little researched. The Middle Río Yaqui region is one such area. Traditionally, this region has been identified as part of the Río Sonora archaeological tradition that embraces the sierra region from near the international border south to northern Sinaloa. No archaeological research has been conducted in the middle of this regio…
Ballcourts and Ceramics
During the middle Sedentary period (ca. A.D. 1000-1070) in the deserts of southern and central Arizona, crowds from near and far regularly gathered at the centers of Hohokam villages to participate in ritual ballcourt festivities. These events were ideal venues for barter and exchange, leading some theorists to hypothesize that periodic marketplaces were associated with the ritual ballgames. Recent ceramic provenance and vessel-form evidence from…
