Una muestra de implementos de madera que provienen de dos sitios prehispánicos del valle de Casma (Bahía Seca y Huaynuná), dentro de los que destacan iniciadores de fuego fueron fabricados a partir de madera, que los análisis histológicos de la anatomía vascular indicaron el uso de madera de Prosopis sp. “algarrobo”, utilizando ramas secundarias gruesas y delgadas. Estos hallazgos indican que la generación del fuego en tiempos prehispánicos se realizó utilizando conocimientos tecnológicos y del uso de las maderas, en este caso de utilizar una especie que tiene como característica tener madera resinosa, favorable para la generación y obtención de …

The First Peoples Of The Lower Rio Grande Valley Of Texas And Northern Mexico: An Interdisciplinary Approach To Defining The Paleoindian Period, Starr Elena Hein
Theses and Dissertations
The archaeological record of the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas and northern Mexico is poorly understood. There are few excavated sites at which Paleoindian cultural materials have been found, and in these cases the context is uncertain. In order to better understand the Paleoindian period, projectile points that reside in private collections are documented, and the time period they are assigned to, based on absolute dating from surrounding regions, is used to cross-date local materials. This is limited by the lack of named typology for Upper Paleolithic materials in the Americas. Clovis is well represented in the Lower Rio …

Recent scholarship theorizes temporalities as an important part of the migration experience, with temporal insecurity being a crucial element of (im)mobility and inequality via the phenomenon of waiting. In this article, we examine how temporalities and experiences of waiting influence health status and access to care, using ethnographic data to articulate how temporalities impact resources and how a doxa of waiting is enacted, placing some groups at heightened risk of illness and pain compared to others. Drawing upon a sample of 100 immigrant families with mixed legal status living in United States-Mexico border communities, we focus on an understudied area …

Nepantla – Examining The Sacred Middle Ground Of Syncretism, Jose Luis Garcia Iii
Theses and Dissertations
As a result of historical traumas caused by the Spanish invasion of Mexico, the autonomy of its Indigenous peoples has been replaced by a Eurocentric identifier based on a colonial language and theologies. Because of the vastness surrounding the Nahua pantheon, Spanish and Church officials relied on guided syncretism as means of correcting their methodologies in converting Mexico’s Indigenous population. This thesis examines syncretism as a process of religious mixing and its residual cultural changes that affected Mexico’s Indigenous populations. This ethnographic research argues that syncretism as an overarching, universalized term is insufficient to describe this process in the Chalma …
