Capitalist Expansion and Identity in the Oasis of San Pedro de Atacama, 1880-1980: An Interdisciplinary Approach (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Flora Vilches. Lorena Sanhueza. Cristina Garrido. Cecilia Sanhueza. Ulises Cárdenas. Daniela Baudet.

In the second half of the 19th Century Chile began a period of profound change resulting from the expansion of the mining industry and increasing investment by large private capital interests. Only a few decades later, the subsistence mode of indigenous Atacameño society, in the far north, was profoundly transformed from an essentially agricultural-pastoral economy to a more diversified capitalist-based one. In this poster we present the results of interdisciplinary research on four subsistence...

European occupation and its impact on local lifestyle: discussing architectural transformations in 20th-century sites in Argentinean Patagonia. (2013)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Amalia Nuevo Delaunay.

European lifeways were introduced into Argentinean Patagonia during the 19th century, thus joining this so-called "empty region" to the realm of the dominant global economic model. By the late 19th century, stockbreeding production started to spread over the area traditionally occupied by local indigenous people, thereby introducing significant changes to their lifestyle. Officially, indigenous peoples were to be settled into circumscribed reserves. However, some chose self-appointed...

Exploring Infatigable (1855): First insights from Archaeology into the mid-Nineteenth Century Chilean Navy (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Diego Carabias. Renato Simonetti. Carla Morales.

Infatigable was a Chilean Navy sailing transport vessel, lost in the harbour of Valparaiso (32° S) in 1855 as a consequence of an accidental explosion and subsequent fire. Positively identified in 2005, the wrecksite designated site S3 PV has been archaeologically investigated comprehensively during the last decade. The underwater survey and excavations conducted recorded the structural remains of the hull and produced a numerous and varied artefact assemblage to be analyzed. The material...

IDENTIFICATION OF CHARCOAL FROM METALLURGICAL FURNACES AT PULAC 050, SOUTHERN BOLIVIA (2010)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Kathryn Puseman.

Charcoal samples from the base of two metallurgical furnaces at the Pulac 050 site in southern Bolivia were submitted for identification to determine if thola (Parastrephia) wood was burned in the furnace. This site appears to be a prehistoric metal working site that may date to the Middle Horizon, around 600-1000 CE. Pieces of modern reference wood were collected by a local man in Bolivia who was familiar with the vegetation. Wood was cut from a known thola shrub, and deadwood was collected...

Imperial Fortifications, Native Lifestyle: Indigenising Colonial Chile (2023)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Beatriz Marín-Aguilera.

This is an abstract from the session entitled "Colonial Forts in Comparative, Global, and Contemporary Perspective", at the 2023 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Chile was the most important and complex borderland of the Spanish Empire (1550–1818), in which colonial power and Indigenous resistance were contested over centuries. Spaniards struggled to subjugate the Reche-Mapuche –the local population–, and eventually conceded their independence upon the acknowledgement...

PHYTOLITH AND STARCH ANALYSIS OF TWO GRINDING STONE RESIDUE WASHES FROM NORTHERN CHILE (2011)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Chad Yost.

Two grinding stones from northern Chile were washed for phytolith and starch remains. The washes were conducted in Chile and the resulting residue was dried and sent to PaleoResearch Institute for analysis. The goal of the analysis was to identify plant opal phytoliths and starch grains that may be derived from plant material processed with these tools.

POLLEN ANALYSIS OF SEDIMENT SAMPLES FROM THE CAMARONES 14 SITE, NORTHERN CHILE (2009)

DOCUMENT Full-Text Linda Scott Cummings. Melissa K. Logan.

Three sediment samples from the excavated profile of the Camarones 14 site in northern Chile were submitted for pollen analysis. The site is believed to represent a middle Holocene occupation associated with the Chinchorro Tradition. These three samples were examined in an effort to provide subsistence information.

Preserved meat supplies or slaughterhouse waste disposal? Zooarchaeology of the Valparaiso Fiscal Mole, Chile (2018)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Isabel Cartajena. Diego Carabias. Patricio López. Renato Simonetti. Carla Morales.

This paper discusses the zooarchaeological evidence of S3-4 PV, an extensive submerged wharf site located contiguous to the remains of the Fiscal Mole of the Port of Valparaiso, in the central coast of Chile (32°S). This concrete and iron pile-supported facility was a major port infrastructure preferentially employed by the line steamers arriving regularly at Valparaiso during the period c.1884-1925. Through underwater archaeology excavations, numerous domestic animal bones were recovered and...

Rock Salt Mining in San Pedro de Atacama, Northern Chile, during the 20th Century: Protoindustrialization or Industrialization in the Periphery? (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Flora Vilches.

Rock salt exploitation in the oases of San Pedro de Atacama is one among many expressions of capitalist expansion in Latin America. Except for mining concessions, historical documentation of these practices is virtually nonexistent, although material remains and former actors in the mining process still survive. In this paper, we present archaeological evidence of rock salt mining sites of different scale and kind of exploitation that coexist throughout the 20th century. Such differences show...

Smoky places: archaeology of smoking practices on public parks of a capital city (Santiago, Chile, South America) (2016)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Amalia Nuevo Delaunay. Javiera Letelier Cosmelli. Rodolfo Quiroz Rojas.

Cigarettes are the most numerous, ubiquitous, and tolerated form of trash on the urban landscape (Graesch & Hartshorn 2014:1). This statement has special meaning in Chile, leading country in cigarette consumption in the continent and highly ranked at a global scale. On this basis, it has became a critical public health issue. Current approaches in the study of this phenomenon are based on interviews, but no material study has been conducted. Considering the differences between people´s...
