| Popis: | The present study applies a dental morphological perspective to the understanding of the complex population history of pre-contact South-Central Andes, the detection of the underlying dynamics, and the assessment of the biological ties among groups. It takes into account 1665 individuals from 16 sites that date from the Archaic to the Late Intermediate located along the coast, on thealtiplano, and in the coastal valleys of both Chile and Peru. The results obtained highlight the need for wider perspectives capable of taking into account both the different micro-regional realities and the region in its ensemble. The population dynamics and mobility patterns detected indicate the widely accepted interpretations and distinctions based on cultural affiliations might be insufficient to comprehend the complex population history of the region, especially because the results obtained in the present study indicate the presence of a general and widespread common morphological background for the inhabitants of some of these cultures (i.e., Moche and Wari) and that the interactions they had throughout time must have been far from inconsequential. |
