Migration, Extractivism, and Necropolitics in the Peruvian Amazon
This article examines migration flows to neoextractivist enclaves within the framework of necropolitics and the political ecology of migration. It explores how degraded territories, shaped by illegal mining, human trafficking, and the sex trade, function as both forces of expulsion and attraction. The theoretical framework integrates concepts of accumulation by dispossession and extractive biopolitics to understand how state control, labor precar…
Paisaje Hídrico y Ciclos Hidrosociales Ichsma e Inca en el Valle Bajo Del Rímac Del 900/1000 D.C. Al 1532 D.C
From the perspective of political ecology this article analyzes the hydraulic landscape during the Ichsma presence (900/1000 – circa 1400 AD) to the Inca influence (circa 1450 to 1532 AD) in the lower Rimac Valley of the central Peruvian coast. Methodologies such as Geographic Information System (GIS), aerial and historical maps were used to obtain terrain modeling with the purpose of identifying the courses and growth of the canals, the Least-Co…
Un imperio en movimiento
Numerous studies have explored mobility along the Qhapaq Ñan. Most of them examine how the road influenced local, regional, and imperial dynamics by fostering exchange relationships and connecting societies, people, and territories. These investigations explicitly or implicitly assume that it was male individuals who mobilized to build the Tahuantinsuyo, while women remained within the domestic unit or were confined to imperial buildings. In this…
Large-scale, collaborative imagery survey in archaeology
Imagery-based survey is capable of producing archaeological datasets that complement those collected through field-based survey methods, widening the scope of analysis beyond regions. The Geospatial Platform for Andean Culture, History and Archaeology (GeoPACHA) enables systematic registry of imagery survey data through a 'federated' approach. Using GeoPACHA, teams pursue problem-specific research questions through a common data schema and interf…

Inka and Local ceramic production and distribution networks
De los tambos incas a las tambarrías coloniales
Historical accounts of the Iberian incursion into the Andes indicate that Spaniards were amazed by the sophisticated roads and waystations (tambos) they encountered across Andean territory. During and after the Iberian conquest, indigenous and Spanish armies constantly burned tambos for strategic reasons, in order to slow the movement of enemy troops. Despite this practice, tambos were one of the few institutions that continued during the colonia…
Evidencias Arqueológicas en Camata Tambo, Tambo Inca Ubicado en El Valle Alto De Moquegua, Andes Sur-Centrales
En base a excavaciones y análisis paleobotánicos realizados en las qollqas (cuartos de almacenamiento) de Camata Tambo, tambo Inca ubicado a 2.800 m.s.n.m. en el valle alto de Moquegua, se propone que las qollqas de esta institución imperial tuvieron una alta sofistificación tecnológica que sugiere que estos almacenes estuvieron diseñados para almacenar y controlar productos de procedencia regional que fueron distribuidos a ciertos grupos locales…
