Christine A Hastorf and Sissel Johannessen
Pre-Hispanic Political Change and the Role of Maize in the Central Andes of Peru in American Anthropologist Volume 95 Number 1
115-138 pages with diagrams and illustrations. Royal octavo 10" x 6 3/4" bound in original publisher's wrappers American Anthropologist volume 95 complete number 1. First edition. <br /><br />While archaeologists have the capacity to track changing food use in the archaeological record they have not tended to use food systems in the study of social and political change. To do so an awareness must be gained of the meanings of foods which then can illuminate the strategic use of a particular food in the creation of relationships of dependence and prestige. Archaeological evidence from the central Andes of Peru indicates that the role of maize changed between AD 500 and 1500 shifting from a culinary item simply prepared by boiling to a more complex symbolic food transformed through grinding and brewing into beer with elaborated political meanings. this change in maize processing and consumption occurred at a time of heightened political and social tensions. The authors propose that the shift in maize use reflected and participated in a new political dynamics demonstrating how food ways can inform Archaeologists about past social and political systems. <br /><br />Condition: Lightly soiled else very good american Anthripolgical Association paperback
