Conservatisme et innovation chez les potières iroquoiennes du site Droulers-Tsiionhiakwatha

Perreault, Christine 04 1900 (has links)
Ce mémoire tente d’établir la position sociale et culturelle de la communauté villageoise du XVᵉ siècle du site Droulers dans l’espace iroquoien du Saint-Laurent. À partir d’une analyse morpho-stylistique de la poterie, et particulièrement les vases décorés au dentelé, ce mémoire examine la variabilité culturelle du site et sa participation au sein de la sphère d’interactions des Iroquoiens du Saint-Laurent. La comparaison des tendances stylistiques de Droulers et des communautés voisines contribue ainsi à cerner la position chronologique ainsi que l’apparentement culturel du site au sein de sa région immédiate et des régions occidentale et centrale. Les caractères stylistiques à la fois conservateurs et progressistes relevés sur le site Droulers lui sont propres et expriment à la fois l’homogénéité du site et une certaine indépendance stylistique au sein de sa région. Sur cette base, nous avons déterminé que l’usage du dentelé n’a pas une valeur chronologique fiable à des fins de sériation dans le cas spécifique de Droulers, mais qu’il peut toutefois servir comme marqueur régional distinctif. Cet attribut ainsi que d’autres tendances régionales significatives nous ont ainsi servi à mieux cerner les similarités stylistiques entre les sites et à déterminer que Droulers s’apparente plus particulièrement aux sites Mandeville et Lanoraie, et dans une moindre mesure au site McIvor. De plus, nous avons pu établir que le site Droulers s’intègre dans un réseau d’interactions complexe, le rapprochant de communautés situées autant à l’Est qu’à l’Ouest le long de la vallée du Saint-Laurent. Finalement, l’ensemble des tendances morpho-stylistiques confirme la position chronologique du site, soit à la fin du XVᵉ siècle, et ce malgré une proportion importante du décor au dentelé, traditionnellement considéré comme une caractéristique des sites plus anciens. / This Masters project attempts to integrate the 15th Century village community of Droulers within our current understanding of the Iroquoian social and cultural sphere in the St. Lawrence Valley. Using a stylistic analysis of pottery rim sherds decorated with the dentate stamp technique, this study attempts to evaluate the cultural variability of the site as well as its place within the St. Lawrence Iroquoian world. The comparison of the stylistic specificities of the Droulers site with those of a variety of other sites is used to position this site within the development of the St. Lawrence Iroquoian sequence, and to map the cultural ties that linked this specific site to the rest of its proximate area and within the western and central provinces of the Saint-Lawrence Iroquoian territory. The simultaneous conservative and progressive characteristics of the pottery produced at the Droulers site are unique to this site, and help us to identify the specificity of the site and to establish its stylistic independence within the region. On the basis of this evidence, we have determined that the use of dentate designs cannot alone serve as a reliable indicator for the purpose of establishing the period of occupation of the site. However, the use of dentate designs can still be used as an indicator of patterns of regional interaction. The use of the dentate design, in conjunction with other significant regional variations, has also helped us better delineate a set of stylistic similarities and to determine that Droulers is most closely linked to the Mandeville and Lanoraie sites, and to a lesser extent to the McIvor site. Furthermore, we have also determined that the Droulers site is part of a complex network of interactions that ties it to communities located further East and West along the St. Lawrence Valley. Finally, the different patterns of stylistic variation, taken together, confirm the chronological position of the site at the end of the 15th Century, despite the high ratio of dentate designs traditionally considered to be characteristic of earlier settlements.

La sombra de Pachacamac: Huari en la costa central

Kaulicke, Peter 10 April 2018 (has links)
Pachacamac's Shadow: Huari on the Central CoastThis paper presents the material evidence from the Middle Horizon on Peru's Central Coast, as well as the situation immediately preceeding its beginnings. Concepts of style as well as spatial contextualization in settlements and burial areas are defined and discussed in order to define social identities and sociopolitical situations that help understand regional changes against a greater background. Principal topics are the specific character of Lima urbanism, social and spatial reconstructions of Nievería and Pachacamac, and contacts with the north central and north coast, as well as the adjoining highlands to the east. These highlands form a vital corridor into the interandean valleys and they were the stage for dynamic conflicts between coastal and highland polities. On the basis of current knowledge it appears that Huari did not adopt highly aggressive means of control such as direct colonization. Quite the contrary, independence and the persistence of local and regional identities co-existed within an atmosphere of "international" relations that imply social complexity that is not yet understood. More investigations must be directed at specific social conditions before alternative hypotheses about general social context can be formulated. / En este trabajo se presentan las evidencias materiales del Horizonte Medio en la costa central, así como la situación previa a su inicio. Se definen y se discuten conceptos de estilo, su contextualidad espacial en asentamientos y áreas funerarias, para poder llegar a definir identidades sociales y situaciones sociopolíticas que ayuden a entender cambios regionales en un marco mayor. Temas principales son el carácter del urbanismo lima, la reconstitución posterior ejemplificada por Nievería y Pachacamac y las relaciones con la costa norcentral y norte, así como, sobre todo, con la sierra de Lima, como corredor hacia el interior y escenario de una historia dinámica. En el estado actual de conocimientos se tiene la impresión que el impacto huari no necesariamente adopta mecanismos de control directo mediante una colonización agresiva. Por el contrario, se percibe una cierta independencia y la persistencia en el énfasis de identidades locales y regionales en medio de interrelaciones "internacionales" de una complejidad aún poco definida. Se requiere investigaciones más acordes con la problemática específica antes de poder proponer hipótesis alternativas dentro de un contexto mayor.
