Alluvium and Empire: The Archaeology of Colonial Resettlement and Indigenous Persistence on Peru's North Coast
There are many layers to this book, which at its core focuses on the late sixteenth-century reducción resettlement campaign in the Andes. The colonial Spanish administration directed the relocation of at least 1.4 million Indigenous Andeans from dispersed villages to more concentrated towns where they could more easily be monitored, indoctrinated, and exploited. Parker VanValkenburgh contributes to recent scholarship that views one of the most ex…
Beyond Cajamarca: A Spatial Narrative Reimagining of the Encounter in Peru, 1532-1533
The Spanish conquistadores' capture of the Inka emperor, Atawallpa, and massacre of many of his people in Cajamarca on November 16, 1532, was a tremendously consequential event. How does our view of such an event change, however, when viewed at a distance and from different places? Relying on Indigenous testimony, this article threads together the stories and actions of provincial folk, Andean lords, female intermediaries, fugitive Inka royalty, …
Peering Beyond the Imperial Gaze: Using Digital Tools to Construct a Spatial History of Conquest
Ethnohistorians and other scholars have long noted how European colonial texts often concealed the presence and participation of indigenous peoples in New World conquests. This scholarship has examined how European sources (both texts and maps) have denied indigenous history, omitted indigenous presence, elided indigenous agency, and ignored indigenous spaces all while exaggerating their own power and importance. These works provide examples of c…
Migration in the 1930s: Beyond the Dust Bowl
This paper analyzes in detail the role of environmental and economic shocks in the migration of the 1930s. The 1940 US Census of Population asked every inhabitant where they lived five years earlier, a unique source for understanding migration flows and networks. Earlier research documented migrant origins and destinations, but we will show how short-term and annual weather conditions at sending locations in the 1930s explain those flows, and how…
