Arquitectura formativa en San Pedro de Atacama
Abstract
En este artículo se caracterizan arquitectónicamente los sitios Tulor-1, Calar y Ghatchi-2C aplicando una metodología sistemática ya probada en otros asentamientos habitacionales del área. En forma complementaria se presentan los antecedentes disponibles sobre arquitectura del Período Formativo en la región de San Pedro de Atacama como en espacios contiguos, para discutir la evolución del patrón aldeano y sus implicancias en el sistema de asentamiento. Se sugiere que factores rituales fueron importantes en los inicios del desarrollo arquitectónico en un contexto de sociedades eminentemente pastoriles, para luego evaluar el rol que estos asentamientos cumplieron una vez consolidados en este nuevo paisaje cultural.
Palabras clave : arquitectura doméstica; San Pedro de Atacama; Período Formativo; evolución social.
Abstract
This paper characterizes the architecture of three sites (Tulor-1, Calar and Ghatchi-2C) by contrasting our results with the records already available about the Formative Period's architecture in the region and nearby places. This enable us to discuss the evolution of villager settlement patterns and its impact in the overall settlement system. The importance ritual factors seemed to have in the development of architecture is linked to a social context eminently composed by shepherd societies and the relatively important role played by their settlements as they consolidated into enclaves of a new cultural landscape.
