A Theory of Andean Geoglyphs
Geoglyphs are found throughout the premodern world. They represent some of the most undertheorized but important archaeological phenomena in our discipline. Decades of systematic work in the Andes has allowed us to model the development of geoglyphs through time. Geoglyphs were preceded by petroglyphs that demarcated travel routes. Isolated sets of figural geoglyphs on hillsides emerged alongside petroglyph clusters before the Early Horizon and f…
Indigenous accounting and exchange at Monte Sierpe (‘Band of Holes’) in the Pisco Valley, Peru
Stretching for 1.5km and consisting of approximately 5200 precisely aligned holes, Monte Sierpe in southern Peru is a remarkable construction that likely dates to at least the Late Intermediate Period (AD 1000–1400) and saw continued use by the Inca (AD 1400–1532). Yet its function remains uncertain. Here, the authors report on new analyses of drone imagery and sediment samples that reveal numerical patterns in layout, potential parallels with In…
For the Love They Bear Them
Following the Spanish invasion and the collapse and overthrow of the Inca Empire, millions of Indigenous Andean people died from diseases, famine, and violence. Simultaneously, the twinned forces of Spanish evangelization and treasure hunting caused widespread destruction to Andean cemeteries and legally prohibited traditional Indigenous mortuary practices. Such prohibitions severed the mutual relationships of care and nurturing ( uyway ) between…
The Rise of Native Lordships at Pashash, a.d . 200–600, North Highlands of Ancash, Peru
This article examines the rise of native, segmentary lordships in the highlands of north-central Peru. It reports on new excavations and mapping at the seat of a prehispanic polity, Pashash (Recuay culture), a large hilltop center that developed after the collapse of Chavín civilization. Fieldwork revealed monumental constructions and two special activity contexts radiocarbon-dated to ca. a.d. 200–400: an offering area in a large palatial compoun…
Painting personhood
Assembling the dead
The post-mortem manipulation of human bodies is documented in many regions of the world, including South America. Recent archaeological fieldwork in the Chincha Valley, Peru, adds to this catalogue nearly 200 examples of the threading of human vertebrae onto reed posts. Here, the authors report on the distribution and composition of these 'vertebrae-on-posts', which are radiocarbon-dated to the Late Horizon (AD 1400-1532) and Colonial (AD 1532-18…

If a picture is worth a thousand words…3D modelling of a Bronze Age tower in Oman
Three-dimensional imagery is rapidly transforming the reconstruction, visualization and conceptualization of ancient monuments. We report (and reflect on the value of) digital reconstruction of a third-millennium bc megalithic tower and surrounding landscape using a combination of architectural drawing, 3D photogrammetry and geographic information systems (GIS) mapping. Our results indicate that at least 181 metric tons of limestone (mean boulder…
