Download or read book Maritime Communities of the Ancient Andes written by Gabriel Prieto and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2019-12-02 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maritime Communities of the Ancient Andes examines how settlements along South America’s Pacific coastline played a role in the emergence, consolidation, and collapse of Andean civilizations from the Late Pleistocene era through Spanish colonization. Providing the first synthesis of data from Chile, Peru, and Ecuador, this wide-ranging volume evaluates and revises long-standing research on ancient maritime sites across the region. These essays look beyond the subsistence strategies of maritime communities and their surroundings to discuss broader anthropological issues related to social adaptation, monumentality, urbanism, and political and religious change. Among many other topics, the evidence in this volume shows that the maritime industry enabled some urban communities to draw on marine resources in addition to agriculture, ensuring their success. During the Colonial period, many fishermen were exempt from paying tributes to the Spanish, and their specialization helped them survive as the Andean population dwindled. Contributors also consider the relationship between fishing and climate change—including weather patterns like El Niño. The research in this volume demonstrates that communities situated close to the sea and its resources should be seen as critical components of broader social, economic, and ideological dynamics in the complex history of Andean cultures.

Download or read book Prehistoric America written by Betty Meggers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past 30 years, the relationship between humans and the environment has changed more drastically than during any previous period in human history. Local sustainable exploitation of natural resources has been overridden by global interests indifferent to the detrimental impact of their activities on local environments and their inhabitants. Increasingly efficient technology has reduced the need for human labor, but improved medical treatment favors reproduction and survival, creating a growing imbalance between population density and food supply. Rapid transportation is introducing alien species to distant terrestrial and aquatic environments, where they displace critical elements in the local food chain.This succinct and profusely illustrated volume applies evolutionary and cultural theory to the interpretation of prehistoric cultural development in the western hemisphere. After reviewing cultural development in Mesoamerica and the central Andes, Meggers examines adaptation in North and South American regions with similar environments to evaluate the influence of adaptive constraints on cultural content.What made the human species dominant on the planet is the substitution of cultural behavior for biological behavior. Prehistoric Americans applied this ability to develop sustainable relationships with their environments. Many succeeded and others did not. Paleoclimatic reconstructions can be compared with archeological sequences and ethnographic descriptions to identify cultural behavior responsible for the difference. Comparison of the responses of Amazonians and Mayans to episodes of severe drought provides useful insights into what we are doing wrong.

This book was released on 2019-09-16T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Evolution of Urban Society, Adams suggested that ecological differences could play an important part in the development of early cities and their relationships with rural populations in their political and economic hinterlands. In the Andes, early cities developed during the first millennium CE in three distinct ecozones: the Pacific coast (Moche), the Lake Titicaca basin (Tiwanaku), and the highland valleys of Ayacucho (Huari). This article provides a brief introduction to each of these case studies, noting variations in urban form and scale, as well as the construction of monuments and public spaces. After describing the differences between the earliest Andean cities, discussion turns to the long-term trajectory of Andean urbanism, culminating in the flexible urban strategies of the Inca Empire.
