Information is provided in intracultural terms while exposing itstranscultural background. We explore the ‘semiotic constellations’ associated with this symbolism.That is, we read series of meaning relationships that make sense to the practice of taking headsof enemies killed in war, the ritual of beheading the prisoners, the use of their skulls as trophiesand ceremonial instruments, and the preservation or burial of the heads of relatives and brethrenfor the reproduction of the social group. The recurrence and persistence of these practices amongAmerindian groups in the Southern Cone, as well as the systems of representations about them,show the symbolism of the head of the Reche Mapuche as part of a Pan-Andean and Amazoniancultural pattern. This means that a cotradition around this cultural pattern has developed in thismacro region.","PeriodicalId":45736,"journal":{"name":"Estudios Atacamenos","volume":"219 1","pages":"213-239"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76785525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Este articulo entrega la primera serie disponible para Chile, aportando la evolucion de la estatura promedio de soldados chilenos (varones) nacidos desde la decada de 1730 hasta la de 1980, usando una muestra de 6.200 individuos. Dicha muestra puede tomarse como un buen proxy de la estatura promedio de la poblacion chilena (masculina) para el periodo bajo estudio. Del analisis de los datos, nuestras principales conclusiones son: (i) a mediados del siglo XVIII la estatura promedio de los chilenos era relativamente alta si se compara con Chile mismo en otros periodos, asi como con otros paises de la region y de Europa; (ii) en el siglo XIX la estatura promedio de los chilenos cae durante un periodo prolongado; (iii) en el siglo XX se observa un importante aumento de la estatura promedio masculina, pero en el mundo desarrollado la estatura crecio mucho mas rapido que en Chile.

This article provides the first available seriesfor Chile, providing the evolution of the average height of Chilean soldiers (male) born from the 1730sto the 1980s, using a sample of 6.200 individuals. This sample can be safely taken as a good proxy ofthe average height of Chilean male population for the period under study. Having analysed our data,our main conclusions are: (i) around mid-eighteenth century the average height of Chileans was ratherhigh if compared to Chile itself, as well as to other countries of the region and Europe; (ii) during thenineteenth century the average height of Chileans declined during a long spell, (iii) in the twentiethcentury there was an important increase in the average male height, but in the developed world heightincreased faster than in Chile.","PeriodicalId":45736,"journal":{"name":"Estudios Atacamenos","volume":"100 1","pages":"161-191"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72763792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Selected pieces from the Museo Nacional del Hombre and the Museo EtnograficoJ.B. Ambrosetti were also considered. In turn, all of these images were classified in respect oftheir general characteristics, as well as according to the morphological characteristics of theirheads, bodies, legs, and tails, as informed by the biological attributes of said reptiles.Based on the variability observed, a typological approach for the analysis of lizardrepresentations was created.

From a perspective that questions the dominant dichotomousand structural interpretation that conceived the logic of otherness as a product of intrinsiccommunity dynamics, this study reveals the central role of historically specific powerrelations in the articulation of identity configurations. This is revealed in the comparativeanalysis of the northwest region of the Iberian Peninsula, the Bolivian highlands, and theChilean Atacama region. The populations of the three regions present animistic beliefs inmouros, chullpas, gentiles and abuelos, which they associate with archaeological remains undera common logic. Starting with the Christian struggle against paganism in Europe and theextirpation of idolatry in America, this article demonstrates how enlightened modernity,nationalism and contemporary multiculturalism have led to different configurations ofpatterns of identity and alterity, as well as alternative notions of ancestry in each case.Archaeology has played a prominent role in these processes, subordinating local conceptionsof otherness and partaking in their heritagisation.","PeriodicalId":45736,"journal":{"name":"Estudios Atacamenos","volume":"22 1","pages":"9-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84520833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

EnglishWe explore the implications of the spatial structure of the artifact assemblages at the Binushmuka I site, located in the north coast of the Beagle Channel (Tierra del Fuego). Considering the expectations derived from ethno-archaeological models concerning settlement patterns, we assume here that the spatial distribution of artifacts, which mainly depend on the number and duration of the occupations and the size of the group, can be used to evaluate the temporal characteristics of the assemblages. For evaluating pattern mobility, we also consider the spatial consistency of the location of the site in relation to features of the paleogeography and the archaeological landscape. The information corresponding to the stratigraphy, chronology and composition of the archaeological sites of this site is described. The confined size of the assemblages (~7m2) and the low degree of size sorting observed in the earlier record of Binushmuka are likely to represent short-term occupations by small sized groups. The spatial consistency between early Holocene occupations and marine hunter-gatherer assemblages observed at a regional level can suggest hypothetically that groups with similar mobility strategies could have occupied the site.","PeriodicalId":45736,"journal":{"name":"Estudios Atacamenos","volume":"10 1","pages":"31-49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80839209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
