Abstract:
This dissertation reports on ethnoarchaeological research conducted among present-day llama pastoralists, (or llameros) in the community of Cerrillos (Province Sud Lipez, Department of Potosi, Bolivia). Using a theoretical framework that combines elements of Marxism and Practice Theory, it aims at defining archaeological correlates for Andean pastoralism and caravan traffic, identifying ways in which the material remains of these activities can be used to explore aspects of the political economy in which they were immersed. Pastoral settlement systems include a minimum of four settings where t

Abstract:
This thesis is aimed at investigating the issue of visibility of pastoral sites and landscape, and at improving our overall understanding of arid lands pastoralism as an eco-anthropological issue. This research was motivated by the recognition that ethnographic sources are extremely vague and unclear regarding the topic of pastoralists’ adaptation to marginal environments. Ethnographic literature is mostly characterized by the description of static and uniform situations where ‘models’ prevail over the ‘reality’.

The subject of domestic architecture in ancient Egypt has attracted less attention than other aspects of Egyptian culture. The traditional approach to the study of ancient Egyptian houses has been formal and largely focused on the site of Amarna, and context and material have not been actively integrated into the study of ancient Egyptian domestic architecture. Moreover, a methodology for the study of ancient Egyptian mudbrick houses has never been developed.

De toutes les questions qui agitèrent et agiteront encore pour longtemps le champ de la recherche en art rupestre, la plus fondamentale est sans doute celle de son sens ou, plus exactement, de la production de son sens. Comment, d’une manière générale, rendre compte de l’existence d’images rupestres sur les parois de certaines grottes d’Europe occidentale, mais aussi comment produire du sens quant aux conditions ayant prévalu à leur formation ? Partant des débats soulevés depuis près d’un siècle en archéologie préhistorique par l’usage de comptes-rendus ethnographiques afin d’interpréter l’art

A partir de uma perspectiva etnoarqueológica esta dissertação apresenta um conjunto de dados históricos, etnográficos e arqueológicos com o objetivo de contribuir para a construção da história indígena do baixo curso do rio Teles Pires, compreendendo a atual Terra Indígena Kaiabi, localizada nos municípios de Jacareacanga (PA) e Apiacas (MT). Os resultados apresentados demonstram que esta Terra Indígena configura-se como um exemplo de palimpsesto da trajetória de ocupação indígena e não-indígena desta região. A ocupação pré-colonial é atestada a partir dos vestígios arqueológicos (cerâmicos e

Abstract:
Les perles, petites masses percées de part en part destinées à être enfilées pour servir en particulier d’ornement, sont une des catégories d’objets les plus fréquemment observées dans les fouilles archéologiques en Afrique. Elles sont aussi présentes dans nombre d’objets perlés actuels ou récents, tels que les colliers, les coiffes, les vêtements, les instruments de danse ou même le mobilier. Employées dans les arts de cour comme dans les formes plus populaires, montées par enfilage simple ou incluses dans des broderies et des tissages, les perles sont omniprésentes dans l’existence d’un Afri
