Ancient DNA confirms crossbreeding of domestic South American camelids in two pre-conquest archaeological sites
Beyond the Nasca Lines
Nazca is famous for the “lines,” or geoglyphs, that attract thousands of tourists to Peru's south coast each year. But Nazca also offers an intriguing archaeological case study of one of the ancient world's most fascinating examples of cultural adaptation to an extreme environment, the Atacama Desert of the central Andes. The pre-Hispanic people of the Nazca Valley, known generically as the Nazca culture, succeeded in one of the driest places in …
Wari (Huari) culture
Wari was the first empire to emerge among the Central Andean civilizations of South America, during the Middle Horizon (MH, 650–1000 ce ). In comparative archaeological terms Wari belongs to the early Bronze Age, and like all pre‐Hispanic Andean cultures it is completely prehistoric, with no writing to assist interpretations. Wari began imperialistic expansion through interaction with Peru's South Coast Nasca culture, but later adopted a new reli…

Conchopata
El presente capítulo reexamina la producción de cerámica y otras actividades, posiblemente especializadas, en Conchopata,un centro urbano recientemente excavado del Horizonte Medio en el valle de Ayacucho. Empleando la exhaustiva base de datos SIG recopilada por el Proyecto Arqueológico Conchopata examinamos mapas normalizados de coropletas y coeficientes de autocorrelación espacial local para entender las distribuciones de cuatro categorías de i…
La arqueología wari y la dispersión del quechua
La asociación de Wari con el quechua o el protoquechua no se puede demostrar con una tradición ininterrumpida de cultura material desde los estilos de cerámica del Horizonte Medio a las comunidades quechuahablantes etnohistóricamente conocidas, pero su dispersión desde su área de origen en el norte de Ayacucho hasta las colonias arqueológicamente más obvias que se extienden lo largo de los Andes desde el Cuzco al sur de Ayacucho, así como hacia I…

Human and animal diet at Conchopata, Peru
Cultural Evolution in the Lake Titicaca Basin
Dr. WILLIAM H. ISBELL is Professor of Anthropology at the State University of New York at Binghamton. A New World archaeologist and Latin American prehistorian specialized in the development of complex societies and the nature of social inequality, he is recognized as one of the foremost authorities on the Andean Middle Horizon. Professor Isbell has excavated extensively in the heartlands of both of the famous Middle Horizon capitals, Huari and T…
Mortuary Preferences
Mortuary practices reveal a great deal about the social organization of prehistoric cultures and their landscape of places. However, tombs are favored targets for looters, making it difficult to determine original burial practices. Very little was known about Wari burial during the Middle Horizon (A.D. 500-1000), even though Wari was an imperial, early Bronze Age culture with a spectacular urban capital in highland Peru. Excavations at the second…

Repensando el Horizonte Medio
El conocimiento del pasado se crea socialmente, en contextos históricos que influyen en la forma en que se entiende e interpreta la información arqueológica. En consecuencia, a medida que los tiempos cambian, los arqueólogos deben estar preparados para modificar su forma de pensar acerca de las culturas prehispánicas. Tanto el periodo cultural denominado Horizonte Medio como el sitio arqueólogico de Conchopata, en el valle de Ayacucho, Perú, pare…

Human and animal diet at Conchopata, Peru
Was Huari a State
Pristine state government evolved among the indigenous cultures of the central Andes, but archaeologists have not demonstrated when and where. Conceptualization of the state as an integrative mechanism for gathering and processing information and for deliberating decisions provides explicit archaeological criteria for statehood. Examination of the archaeological record reveals that Middle Horizon Huari fulfills almost all of these criteria for st…

Ceramic Ecology of the Ayacucho Basin, Peru
The paper examines some of the interrelationships of environment and ceramic specialization in the area around the village of Quinua, Department of Ayacucho,Peru. The study reveals that agricultural land dependent on rainfall provides a significant limiting factor in the development of full-time ceramic specialization. Furthermore, the complex series of Quinua ceramic styles depends upon a diverse set of ceramic resources which are mined nearby i…
