Abstract

During the Middle Horizon (A.D. 600-1000), the Wari state extended its influence over much of Peru. One popular view of the Wari expansion is that the state constructed a system of administrative centers that ruled through an idiom of generalized reciprocity and extracted, stored, and redistributed goods from local groups. This paper considers how this model of the Wari periphery was constructed over the last 100 years, and argues that interpretations that fit within this model have been given added weight in academic literature because they fit our expectations of what the past should be like. I suggest that there are significant problems in this understanding of the Wari periphery that need to be addressed, and offer an alternative model that better fits the available evidence.

Durante el Horizonte Medio (600-1000 d.C.) el estado Wari extendió su influencia sobre gran parte del Perú. Una visión popular de la expansión Wari es que el Estado construyó un sistema de centros administrativos que gobernaba a través del lenguaje, de la reciprocidad generalizada y extraía, almacenaba y redistribuía bienes de y hacia grupos locales. En el presente artículo se analiza cómo fue construido este modelo de periferia Wari en los últimos 100 años, y se plantea que las interpretaciones que se ajustan a tal modelo fueron destacadas en la literatura académica dado que concuerdan con expectativas de lo que el pasado debería ser. Sugiero que esta conceptualización de la periferia Wari acarrea problemas sustantivos que deben ser afrontados, y ofrezco un modelo alternativo que se ajusta mejor a la evidencia disponible.
