Soza Phase Sites in the Lower San Pedro Valley, Arizona

Luchetta, Sarah Kendall January 2005 (has links)
Archaeological research in the San Pedro Valley during the last decade has shed new light on settlement and subsistence activities of prehistoric people in Southeastern Arizona. The Twin Hawks site (AZ BB:6:20[ASM]), located in the upland region of the Lower San Pedro Valley, provides an opportunity to examine social-economic relationships between riverine and upland sites. Ceramic and flotation studies from excavated sites in the northern Tucson Basin and Lower San Pedro Valley, as well as surveyed sites in the vicinity of the Twin Hawks site are used to address these issues.

As we see ourselves, so shall we be seen: identity and the artist’s practice

Martinez, Monica Mercedes 24 August 2012 (has links)
I have always been at once fascinated and disquieted by the power of history to shape identity. As a Canadian raised on the Prairies, and a transplanted Chilean immigrant who has a combination of indigenous South American and European heritage, my ethnicity has made seeing only one side of any historical event a near impossibility. How does a person with a multi-faceted ethnic identity interpret the colonization of the Americas? From the view of the indigenous part of me, who mourns the millions lost, or of the European parts of me seeking a chance at a better life? Am I the slave or the slave owner, heathen or saint, explorer or exile, conqueror or conquered? Because of this dichotomy of viewpoints, my explorations of the effects of history, particularly the effects of cultural colonization on personal identity, have become one of the primary motivations for the sculptures that I create.

The Lurin Valley, Peru, A.D. 1000-1532

Feltham, Patricia Jane January 1983 (has links)
This thesis discusses the post-Middle Horizon archaeology of one of the smaller central coast valleys of Peru. It focuses on a zone between 400 and 1000 metres above sea level and analyses data collected over several field seasons. There are two appendices dealing with ceramic analysi8 and excavations. An introduction defines the problems raised by previous work and discusses field procedures. There is a full treatment of the environment in order to show the potential self-sufficiency of the zone and its importance as a coca-growing area. Over 100 sites are described and dated to one or more periods, from the Early Horizon to the Colonial Period, on the basis of the pottery found in surface collections and excavations. Reasons are given for the shift in 8ettlement location between early and late periods. There follows a treatment of the late architecture, which is divided into three types:- domestic, ritual and community. It is shown that the population lived scattered along the hill slopes or behind the ritual structures located on the alluvial fans of lateral quebradas. The purpose of these ritual structures was to house rites connected with the well-being of ancestor-worshipping groups and as a repository for their dead. Ethnohistorical sources yield further information on the economic, political and social organisation of the valley inhabitants. They confirm relationships between coastal Yungas and highland Yauyos, that the ceramic analysis suggested. During the Late Horizon the Incas established themselves in the upper part of the study area in order to control communications and to enjoy access to coca. The most important changes they made were to build a major road linking the coastal and highland centres of Pachacamac and Jauja and to establish a tambo, whose location is identified in this study. Villages close to the tambo underwent particular Inca influence because they provided the bulk of labour for building and servicing it.
