Chimú-Inka Segmented Agricultural Fields in the Jequetepeque Valley, Peru
In this study, we analyze extensive segmented and standardized agricultural fields in the marginally productive terrain of the Pampa de Guereque in the Jequetepeque Valley on the north coast of Peru. Although portions of the associated canal system were constructed continuously from late Formative to Chimú times, the segmented fields date to the late Chimú-Inka period and were only partially finished, apparently never fully used, and ultimately a…
More Mobiliary Art from Northern Mexico
In 1996, the first evidence of a mobiliary art tradition in northern Mexico was found at Boca de Potrerillos, Nuevo Leon, and reported in Plains Anthropologist. Now, the unsystematic collection of 103 incised stones from Pelillal, Coahuila confirms that at least two technically and iconographically distinct types of mobiliary art were produced by the prehistoric hunters and gatherers of north central Mexico. The simpler stones bear incised linear…
Continuities in Architectural Traditions
The recent discovery of a pit house village, 40 km northwest of Monterrey, challenges the conventional view of inland northeastern Mexico as the domain of purely nomadic hunters and gatherers throughout prehistory. Las Casitas consists of fifty-three subterranean rooms and forty-eight smaller depressions aligned in three slightly arcuate tiers in a small valley adjacent to Boca de Potrerillos, an extremely large open campsite and petroglyph compl…
Stuck in the Muck
The remains of at least ten bison-three adult fomales, five juveniles, and two calves-were shallowly buriedinlacustrine clays at the base of a large truncated dune encircling the northern perimeter of Big Lake, the largest saline lake in Texas. Radiocarbon assay of sediments and bone apatite, and the heavily ground base of a straight-sided Late Paleoindian dart point, date the kill to approximately 8000 radiocarbon years ago. The verticalstance o…
The Mobiliary Art Of Boca De Potrerillos Nuevo LeÓN, Mexico
Two types of incised tabular sandstone rocks were recovered from two spatially and temporally distinct areas within the large petroglyph/open camp site of Boca de Potrerillos in the northeastern Mexican state of Nuevo Leon. Seventeen stones from Coconos, a subarea ofthe site that probably dates to about 5000 BP, are engraved with broad, deep linear and curvilinear designs made by pecking and smoothing of grooves. A recurring motif is an apparent …
The Archaic Environment of Boca De Potrerillos, Nuevo León, Mexico
Nine new radiocarbon dates expand the occupational sequence at Boca de Potrerillos, a large open camp site on the fringes of the Sierra Madre Oriental in Nuevo León, Mexico, to the range between 270 and 7700 years ago. Incised stones attributable to the Archaic component provide an estimate of the age of some of the 3000 petroglyphs at this site. Cut-and-fill cycles, pollen counts, and gastropod analyses contribute to the definition of two climat…
From Marshland to Desert
Despite the paucity of archaeological research in the Sierra Madre Oriental ecotone of northeastern Mexico, a patterned distribution of large open campsites replete with petroglyphs is suggested by a recent rock art survey sponsored by the Mexican government. Pilot research at Boca de Potrerillos, one of the largest and best preserved examples of this site type, demonstrates that the intermontane desert of today was once a combination of grasslan…
