GLOSSARIES
An English-Spanish and a castellano-inglés glossary of archaeological terms and fieldwork-related words. This is, of course, a contribution in progress. It is perhaps best adapted, in the fieldwork-related words, to usages restricted to Peru and Bolivia. Our most common word, sherd, has a different name in each Latin American country (or almost!). Terms cover a wide range of topics, from body bones (Physical anthropology) to soil terms. Therefore, suggestions for corrections and entry of new words or different meanings to existing words are bienvenidos!BIBLIOGRAPHIES
Basic readings on Andean archaeology
Basic readings on complex societies These two reference lists were made in May 1992 for my comprehensive examinations at the University of Pittsburgh. They are out-dated today, but can serve as the basis for future reading lists on these topics.
A Tiwanaku bibliography of references used for the above two papers, dissertation, and other manuscripts on my research in Cochabamba.
Bibliography on hydraulic and ancient canal studies in the Peruvian coastal valleys compiled in 1993. Up to that point, most of the relevant papers in the debate of the collapse of the Chimu canal system -and on Chimu prehistory in general- had been published. Then, focus on irrigation studies shifts to the south coast (Osmore-Moquegua) and altiplano (see Tiwanaku bibliography).
Bibliography on Andean prehistoric crafts and technologies Titles linked to Amazon Compiled in the early 90's. Eclectic selection of readings on the prehistoric handicraft techniques (pottery, textiles, and metal), which in several cases selects the most relevant publications of a researcher (e.g., as for prolific researchers like Heather Lechtman). This is the reference list of a manuscript on the evolution of the three major craft groups written for the catalogue of a collection of the Banco Central de Reserva (the collection confiscated at Washington airport in 1982 and assessed by Clifford Evans).
