The southwestern Amazon Rainforest Ecotone (ARE) is the transitional landscape between tropical forest and seasonally flooded savannahs of Bolivian Llanos de Moxos. These heterogeneous landscapes harbour high levels biodiversity some earliest records human occupation plant domestication in Amazonia. While persistent Indigenous legacies have been demonstrated elsewhere Amazon, it unclear how past human–environment interactions may shaped vegetation composition structure ARE. Here, we examine...
Abstract The Casarabe culture (500–1400 ce ), spreading over roughly 4,500 km 2 of the monumental mounds region Llanos de Moxos, Bolivia, is one clearest examples urbanism in pre-Columbian (pre-1492 ) Amazonia. It exhibits a four-tier hierarchical settlement pattern, with hundreds interconnected by canals and causeways 1,2 . Despite archaeological evidence indicating that maize was cultivated this society 3 , it unknown whether staple crop which type agricultural farming system used to...
Recent advances in the archaeology of lowland South America are furthering our understanding Holocene development plant cultivation and domestication, cultural niche construction, relationships between environmental changes strategies food production. This article offers new data on landscape management mobility Southwestern Amazonia during a period change at Middle to Late transition, based archaeobotanical analysis Monte Castelo shellmound, occupied 6000 650 yr BP located modern,...
Abstract Anthropogenic soils known as Amazonian Dark Earths (ADEs) have long been a key component of subsistence systems for various pre‐Columbian populations. Often treated single category, ADE consist two broad anthrosols (human‐modified soils): the darker (traditionally terra preta ) and lighter brown Brown Earth (ABE; traditionally mulata ). Data on characteristics spatial distribution these are severely lacking. Transects soil test pits at Triunfo Versalles archaeological sites in...
Resumo O presente artigo apresenta o processo de ocupação sambaquieiro na barreira da Itapeva, contextualizando os sítios e seus construtores cronologia, bem como as escolhas para inserção em uma paisagem marcada pela dinâmica das transformações paleoambientais. A implantação do Sambaqui Recreio sobre planície costeira formação demonstra escolha cultural calcada um modo vida milenar que já se desenvolvia costa sul/sudeste brasileira há quase dois mil anos. Se, por lado, escavações permitiram...
