SSHRC IDG awarded 2022: This project examines the response of the village of Zorropata in the Nasca region of southern Peru to Wari state expansion during the Middle Horizon (CE 6001000) through food security and trade. The PI will evaluate the sustainability of animal management practices in household contexts and wider society to understand how colonization impacts the way that local groups maintain their daily activities or take advantage of new opportunities. A life history framework forms the foundation of this research that recognizes how the lives of animals record the everyday tasks and longterm practices of local communities. The PI will examine the relationship between(1) sustainability of animal management activities and Wari state expansion and (2) greater engagement in interregional interaction among residents of Zorropata and compare faunal and isotopic profiles of key species with other Middle Horizon local villages in Nasca and Cusco.
