“…53), associated with 571 maize cobs whose kernels had been removed (54). The HP1 facility shows similarities to facilities documented ethnographically and archaeologically for the production of maize beer or chicha (55)(56)(57). Although chicha was produced and consumed in a variety of contexts in the ancient Andes, scholars have long recognized the special role of chicha production and consumption in the political economy of Andean states (56,57).…”

A major research problem in anthropology is the origin of the state and its bureaucratic form of governance. Of particular importance for evaluating theories of state origins are cases of primary state formation, whereby a first-generation state evolves without contact with any preexisting states. A general model of this process, the territorial-expansion model, is presented and assessed with archaeological data from six areas where primary states emerged in antiquity: Mesoamerica, Peru, Egypt, Mesopotamia, the Indus Valley, and China. In each case, the evidence shows a close correspondence in time between the first appearance of state institutions and the earliest expansion of the state's politicaleconomic control to regions lying more than a day's round-trip from the capital. Although additional research will add detail and clarity to the empirical record, the results to date are consistent with the territorial-expansion model, which argues that the success of such long-distance expansion not only demanded the bureaucratization of central authority but also helped provide the resources necessary to underwrite this administrative transformation.archaic states | comparative archaeology | political evolution

Examination of three frozen bodies, a 13-y-old girl and a girl and boy aged 4 to 5 y, separately entombed near the Andean summit of Volcán Llullaillaco, Argentina, sheds new light on human sacrifice as a central part of the Imperial Inca capacocha rite, described by chroniclers writing after the Spanish conquest. The high-resolution diachronic data presented here, obtained directly from scalp hair, implies escalating coca and alcohol ingestion in the lead-up to death. These data, combined with archaeological and radiological evidence, deepen our understanding of the circumstances and context of final placement on the mountain top. We argue that the individuals were treated differently according to their age, status, and ritual role. Finally, we relate our findings to questions of consent, coercion, and/or compliance, and the controversial issues of ideological justification and strategies of social control and political legitimation pursued by the expansionist Inca state before European contact.bioarchaeology | computed tomography | Erythroxylum coca | ice mummies | South America

“…Un segundo momento de preparación del Pachallampe es la elaboración de chicha 11 . El consumo de la bebida libatoria fue masivo hasta la década de 1990, por tener amplias connotaciones rituales y sociales (Hayashida 2008;Jennings y Bowser 2008; Pacheco 2014). Sin embargo, en las últimas décadas su elaboración y uso ha sido más simbólico, pues se la ha reemplazado por el vino, cerveza y licores destilados.…”
