Similarly, lightning veneration played an important role to the ancient civilizations of Mesoamerica and Andean S…

Scholars from diverse fields have explored the symbolic complexity of food and its preparation, as well as the social importance…

Reconsiderando la introducción del maíz en el occidente de América del Sur
Numerosos investigadores en las ciencias sociales y naturales han discutido el origen y antigüedad del maíz en la región noroeste de América del Sur. En este artículo nos referimos a la evidencia disponible y a algunas de las teorías de los estudiosos sobre este tema. Presentamos además un nuevo método que permite establecer los usos que se le han dado al maíz, a través del estudio de los opalofitolitos encontrados en restos carbonizados proceden…
