Craft Production and Consumption in the City of Huari: A Spatial Analysis

Author(s): Emily Roberts

Year: 2018

Summary

In this paper, major focus will be given to metal artifacts and fragments, examined with respect to object type, production technique, and their distribution throughout different architectural spaces during the 2017 excavations of Patipampa, a domestic sector of the Middle Horizon (AD 500-1000) city of Huari. These artifacts, collected during excavation and flotation, will be compared to finished products and fragments belonging to other artifact classes, such as shell, across multiple architectural spaces using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Spatial analysis will be conducted using GIS in order to assess possible correlations with respect to craft production and consumption by the people who lived in Patipampa, allowing for examination of the organization of urban spaces with regards to production and consumption.
