Genre: Social Science
ISBN: 1877812870

Archaeological study of the emergence of the ethnohistorically documented Quijos chiefdoms in the eastern Ecuadorian Andes. This research evaluates links between the emergence of centralized leadership and the organization of agricultural production. The focus is on reconstructing the demographic history of 137 km2 based on a full coverage systematic survey, and on reconstructing patterns of food production and consumption based on analysis of pollen, phytoliths and plant macroremains from the excavation of 31 tests at locations representing different environmental settings and settlement types. The study proposes a sequence starting at about 600 B.C., with the first manifestations of a regional system of centralized authority appearing after about 500 A.D. Neither control of basic resources nor specialized craft production seem to have been important in the social and political dynamics of the emerging Quijos chiefdoms.

Cet ouvrage regroupe les actes d'un colloque organisé par la Casa de Velàzquez, à Madrid, au mois de mars 2004 sous le titre Desde la Tarraconense hasta Marca Superior de al-Andalus (ss. IV-XI). Il s'agit là du premier volet d'une série intitulée villa dont le champ de recherche couvre l'ensemble de la vallée de l'Ebre et la période des siècles dits obscurs. L'objectif de cette réunion visait à regrouper des universitaires et des chercheurs des deux côtés de la chaîne pyrénéenne pour éclairer la question controversée de la transition de l'Antiquité tardive au Moyen Age. Au-delà de la diversité des exemples abordés, en Navarre, en Aragon comme en Catalogne, les séances ont permis de dégager des points communs dans l'étude du peuplement rural, tel que le poids du déclin démographique des Ve-Vle siècles, l'existence d'un habitat dispersé avant l'an mil, la fréquence des sépultures taillées dans la roche et surtout, avant la grande mutation du Xe siècle, le faible rôle du château dans l'organisation de l'espace et la structuration du peuplement. Malgré les bouleversements entraînés par la conquête musulmane au début du VIIIe siècle, on retiendra surtout qu'il convient d'étudier cette période non plus en termes de fin du monde antique ou de prémices du Moyen Age mais en soi et pour soi, comme un moment particulier, depuis la crise de la villa jusqu'à l'essor de l'incastellamento.
