Autor Roberto Valc Rojas, Roberto Valcaarcel Rojas, Roberto Valcarcel Rojas
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 ian 2016
This book, a true milestone in the archaeology of the Greater Antilles, presents a bold new synthesis and interpretation of El Chorro de Maita, a native Cuban Indian town caught up in the political and economic domination of the early colonial world. Vernon James Knight Jr., author of "Iconographic Method in New World Prehistory"
Provides a deeper and well-documented understanding of the role of the aboriginal Indo-Cubans in an early colonial context that stimulated the development of a Cuban national identity. Jose R. Oliver, author of "Caciques and Cemi Idols"
During Spanish colonization of the Greater Antilles, the islands natives were forced into labor under the "encomienda" system. The indigenous people became Indios, their language, appearance, and identity transformed by the domination imposed by a foreign model that Christianized and civilized them. Yet El Chorro de Maita retained many of its indigenous characteristics.
In this volume one of the first in English to examine and document an archaeological site in Cuba Roberto Valcarcel Rojas analyzes the construction of colonial authority and the various attitudes and responses of natives and other ethnic groups. His pioneering study reveals the process of transculturation in which new individuals emerged Indians, "mestizos, criollos" and helps construct the vital link between the pre-Columbian world and the development of an integrated and new history.
