Modelling Maize Agriculture by the Pre-Columbian Casarabe Culture of Amazonian Bolivia
Scholars have long debated the extent to which pre-Columbian (pre-1492 CE) indigenous cultures modified and 'domesticated' the landscapes of Greater Amazonia.Compelling evidence to support large-scale pre-Columbian landscape modification can be found in the forest-savanna mosaic environments of northern Bolivia, where the Casarabe Culture constructed hundreds of earthen settlement mounds, integrated by a vast causeway-canal network.Operating betw…
Localised land-use and maize agriculture by the pre-Columbian Casarabe Culture in Lowland Bolivia
Multiple pre-Columbian (pre-1492 CE) archaeological sites now challenge the traditional portrayal of Amazonia as a ‘pristine wilderness’.
