Abstract
Peruvian archaeology is undeniably a synergetic product of Peruvian and Peruvianist practitioners and we strive to present and balance their perspectives and accomplishments since the late nineteenth century. The relationship between them has had its moments of difficulty, but its continuing development hinges on mutual respect and collaboration. Peruvian archaeology has come to be characterized by a number of important features such as an emphasis on archaeology-ethnohistory dialectics, provincial studies that focus on intrusive state–local relationships, culture–environment interaction along altitudinal and latitudinal dimensions, paleoenvironmental reconstruction and its social ramifications, and iconographic/stylistic and gravelot analysis. The Peruvian theoretical stance has been strongly tied to political ideology; the notion of the mother culture bears a strong imprint of the indigenísta (pronative) movement, while the more recent “social archaeology” a Marxian ideological foundation. Today, beside a curious mixture of cultural, historical, and social archaeological concerns, there is an abiding interest in the earliest, the largest, and the most spectacular that seems to explain the focus on selected monumental sites. On the Peruvianist side, reflecting its diverse intellectual backgrounds, culture-historical, processual (strong ecological emphasis), and postprocessual schools coexist, although there has been a definite rise in the application of the last (e.g., concepts of agency, practice, and memory). The most significant recent development in Peruvian archaeology has been the rapid expansion of culture management and tourism-oriented archaeology and related changes in the training and employment of Peruvian archaeologists. Factors that shaped current trends and foci in the practice of archaeology are explicated within the context of the social, political, and economic transformations that have taken place over the last two decades. The paper concludes with a discussion of future tasks for and directions of Peruvian archaeology.
