On Motivated Role Selection: Gender Beliefs, Distant Goals, and Career Interest
Despite widespread changes in occupational opportunities, men and women continue to show divergent preferences for careers. This research invoked a motivational framework to explain sex-differentiated career interest. From a role congruity perspective ( Diekman & Eagly, 2008 ), the internalization of gender roles leads people to endorse gender-stereotypic goals, which then lead to interest in occupations that afford the pursuit of those goals. Th…

Reconstrucción De La Prehistoria Amazónico: Algunas consideraciones teóricas
Este artículo tiene por objeto, en un contexto geográfico más amplio, comentar alguna de las evidencias lingüísticas y arqueológicas y discutir ciertas consideraciones culturales y ambientales, que deben ser consideradas en cualquier esfuerzo para la reconstrucción del pasado del hombre en la Amazonía. Como los datos en todos los campos son aún mínimos, las reconstrucciones que siguen serán reconocidas como hipotéticas. Representan esfuerzos para…
Early Formative Period Chronology of the Ecuadorian Coast: A Correction

Use of Organic Temper for Carbon 14 Dating in Lowland South America
Experimental work has demonstrated the practicality of extracting sufficient organic carbon for Carbon 14 dating from sherds tempered with crushed charcoal sponge spicules (cauixi), and siliceous bark (cariapé). The sherds were from ceramic complexes on the Napo, Orinoco, and Amazon Rivers that had been stratigraphically excavated and could be cross-checked
The Machalilla Culture: An Early Formative Complex on the Ecuadorian Coast
Excavations at the site of G-110: La Cabuya provide significant new data on the content and chronological position of the Machalilla culture. Trade pottery establishes its contemporaneity with the late period of the Valdivia culture, estimated at between 1800 and 1500 B.C. While seafood appears to have provided the main subsistence in both cultures, the ceramics and other artifacts are distinct. Machalilla pottery is well made, with thin walls an…

Part II, An Archaeological Evaluation of the Method
Dating archaeological sites, cultures or phases by the obsidian method is still experimental, but shows promise provided the archaeologists understand the present limitations. Two categories of factors cause possible dating errors: the technical or geological aspect discussed by Friedman and Smith, and the archaeological context. For the establishment of valid rates of hydration and for the archaeological evaluation of the method, preferred sampl…

Formative Period Cultures in the Guayas Basin, Coastal Ecuador
Growing knowledge of cultural sequences in Mesoamerica and in Peru has caused archaeologists interested in correlating these areas and explaining the derivation of various traits to look longingly at the little-known intermediate region occupied by Ecuador and Colombia. In the fall of 1954 an invitation by Emilio Estrada, Director of the Museo Arqueologico 'Victor Emilio Estrada' in Guayaquil, Ecuador, gave us the opportunity to make a brief surv…
Preliminary Results of Archaeological Investigations at the Mouth of the Amazon
Recent years have seen increasing archaeological research in South America, but little of it has been undertaken in the tropical forest regions. In an attempt to fill a portion of this gap we spent the period from July, 1948 to July, 1949 in archaeological survey and excavations on the Islands of Marajó, Mexiana, and Caviana in the mouth of the Amazon and in the Territory of Amapá, (Brazilian Guiana). At the close of the field work the material w…
A Report on Recent Archaeological Investigations in the Lagôa Santa Region of Minas Gerais, Brazil
As a supplement to the recent review of H. V. Walter's book, The Prehistory of the Lagôa Santa Region, some additional information about the nature of his recent archaeological work is of interest. After the completion of our own year of archaeological field work in the Lower Amazon, three days were spent in the Lagôa Santa Region, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais with Mr. H. V. Walter studying his collections, and visiting and excavating with him so…

Cultural Stratigraphy in the Virú Valley Northern Peru: The Formative and Florescent Epochs
An anthropological study on human cultural adaptation of mankind within the confines of a small area over a long period of time by studying the stratigraphic record of the lower and older half of the Viru Valley in Northern Peru. Describes the rise of early civilizations in the Viru Valley and the highly evolved and colorful native civilizations that occupied the area in pre-European times
