Life and death in colonial Peru: the beginning of bioarchaeology in historical Lambayeque (1536-1750 d.c.) / Vida y muerte en el Perú colonial: inicios de la bioarqueología en Lambayeque histórico (1536-1750 d.C.)

Klaus, Haagen D. 10 April 2018 (has links)
Considering all the developments and dynamics spanning the Andean cultural history, contact between Andeans and Europeans in the sixteenth century was unprecedented in terms of scope, impact and violence. Paradoxically, it is a time period that has received little archaeological attention. Historic Peru has almost always been studied through the ethnohistorical sources, revealing incomplete and often distorted by layers of European ethnocentrism and behavioral misperception of Andean cultures. Often, the very lives of people and the nuanced experiences of native cultures have remained unknown, obscured by a lack of data and wide range of assumptions about the colonial society that emerged in the wake of the conquest. This article applies bioarchaeological perspectives in the study of colonial Central Andes. The excavations in the village of Mórrope, Lambayeque Valley (northern Peru) allows us to integrate multiple independent lines of ethnohistoric, archaeological, and biological data to examine two central issues: (1) How did conquest impact patterns of pre-Hispanic health, diet, and physical activity? (2) What do burial patterns reveal about parallel processes of native cultural change and identity in colonial Peru? / Considerando la totalidad de los desarrollos y dinamicas culturales que abarca la historia andina, el contacto entre los andinos y los europeos a partir del siglo XVI no tiene precedentes en terminos de su alcance, impacto y violencia. Paradojicamente, es la epoca que ha recibido poca atencion arqueologica. El Peru historico, casi siempre, ha sido estudiado a traves de las fuentes etnohistoricas que son reveladoras e incompletas, a menudo distorsionadas por capas de etnocentrismo europeo y percepcion erronea del comportamiento de las culturas andinas. A menudo, la vida misma y los matices de las experiencias vividas por las culturas nativas son desconocidos, y estan cubiertos de misterio y de una amplia gama de supuestos acerca de la sociedad colonial que surgio de la estela de la conquista. En este articulo, se aplican las perspectivas bioarqueologicas en el estudio de los Andes Centrales coloniales. Las excavaciones en el pueblo de Morrope, valle de Lambayeque (Costa Norte del Peru), nos permiten integrar multiples lineas de datos independientes etnohistoricos, arqueologicos y biologicos para examinar dos cuestiones centrales: 1) .Como impacto la conquista en los patrones de salud, actividad fisica y dieta prehispanicos? 2) .Que revelan los patrones de enterramiento como experiencias paralelas de cambio cultural e identidad nativa en el Peru colonial?
