Abstract

The 2001 field season of the Kalinga Ethnoarchaeological Project addressed ceramic discard and midden formation in Dalupa, an upland community of 380 people in Pasil Municipality, Kalinga Province, the Philippines. Despite the increasing reliance on metal cooking vessels in the project area over time, two seasons of the Kalinga Ethnoarchaeological Project still provided enough data to describe ceramic discard and accumulation within middens. Dalupa middens receive most discarded vessels and a representative sample of discarded vessel types. This is in part because transport to water sources and washing, activities heavily associated with vessel breakage, now occur primarily within the residential area. Vessels often reach middens in a complete or reconstructible state, but are reduced to small sherds by cultural disturbance processes. Because people usually use the closest midden, catchment areas for middens can be predicted if the spatial distribution of contemporaneous residences, other activity areas, and middens is known. This work may help researchers distinguish the discarded ceramics from different households or groups of households, control for any biases in accumulation, and connect ceramic attributes with social variables of interest.

Résumé

Résumé

El trabajo del proyecto Etnoarqueológico de Kalinga durante el año 2001 se dirigió al desecho de las cerámicas y la formación de los basureros en Dalupa, comunidad de 380 personas en el municipio de Pasil, provincia de Kalinga de las Filipinas. A pesar de la aumentada dependencia en las vasijas metálicas de cocina en el área del estudio, el proyecto Etnoarqueológico de Kalinga todavía produjo suficientes datos para poder describir el desecho y la acumulación de las cerámicas dentro de los basureros durante dos temporadas de trabajo. Los basureros de Dalupa reciben la mayoría de las vasijas rechazadas, y una muestra representativa de todos los diferentes tipos de las vasijas. Por una parte, esto sucede porque las actividades asociadas con la destrucción de las vasijas, como el transporte del agua y la lavandería, ocurren principalmente dentro del área residencial. Es común que las vasijas lleguen a los basureros en un estado completo o reconstruible, y los procesos destructivos culturales las reduzcan a pequeños detritos. Típicamente la gente hace uso del basurero más cerca a su lugar de residencia, así, las zonas de captación de los basureros pueden ser estimadas si (i) la distribución espacial de las residencias contemporáneas, (ii) las áreas de actividad diaria, y (iii) los basureros mismos son localizados. Este trabajo puede ayudar a los investigadores a distinguir las cerámicas rechazadas de diferentes hogares o grupos de hogares, controlar por los prejuicios en la acumulación de los basureros, y a asociar los atributos de las cerámicas con ciertas variables sociales.
