Los Chichas: arqueología y etnohistoria.
- Authors
DE GUTIERREZ, MARIA BEIERLEIN
- Abstract
In this paper l want to present a synthesis of the ethnohistorical and archaeological data referring to the Chichas of the Southcentral Andes, offering an integral view of its territorial and temporal development. The main question that guides me throughout this article is the supposed continuity between the ethnohistoric Chichas group, known from written sources of the 16th century. and the archaeological "style" often associated with them and dated preliminary between 600 and 1500 A.D, To present a broader picture of the Chichas culture it is necessary to review both data sets and question this supposed "cultural continuity" which leads to the idea of a territory of Chicha influence which is characterized by its heterogenous relations between the different entities that habitated this area, relations which, far from being static during time and space. represent a diverse panorama of human interrelationships.
