Northern Exposures: Recuay-Cajamarca Boundaries and Interaction

  • Chapter

Abstract

This study aims to provide a trial characterization of boundary maintenance in the Recuay tradition of the Early Intermediate Period, ca. AD 1–700 (all age ranges are cited using cal AD dates as per Lau 2002–2004). By boundary maintenance, I mean the process of ascribing and communicating socio-cultural difference (Barth 1969). The process has been researched at different scales, from kin groups to communities to nations (Bentley 1987; Eriksen 1991; Hutchinson and Smith 1996; Lightfoot and Martinez 1995; Stark 1998). I review archaeological evidence for interaction in northern Peru to examine ways in which Cajamarca and Recuay peoples made purposeful choices through material culture.
