El soplo voraz. Interpretando la iconografía de venados en Tiwanaku desde las poéticas Andino-Amazónicas

Abstract: En este artículo se emplea la iconografía de venados como un ingreso al mundo de la cacería tiwanakota (ca. 500-1100 dc), aspecto descuidado por la narrativa arqueológica dominante del "Estado andino" agropastoril. Se resumen poéticas andinas y amazónicas sobre venados como base para la interpretación, y se describen los objetos con imágenes de venados conocidos para Tiwanaku. En ellos, las alusiones gráficas a un poderoso soplo, a la ferocidad y consumo de humanos, así como al cielo nocturno, plantean metáfor… Show more

“…While the images of llamas (human-reared animals) were created in a naturalistic way, the iconography of deer (non-human-reared animals) lacks a formal resemblance to the real referent. Furthermore, the deer would have been associated with a specific physical space, the mountainous environment (Villanueva Criales 2021). Alaica (2018) also posits a similar oppositional relationship in the Moche culture, in ancient Peru.…”

“…An interesting example of this, from Andean archaeology, shows completely different ways of representing camelids and cervids. While the images of human-reared animals, such as llamas, were elaborated in a naturalistic way, the images of wild deer lack anatomical accuracy (Villanueva Criales 2021). Another example, coming from Amazonian archaeology, relates the presence of a more naturalistic figurative art with the need to maintain an extra-regional language, probably with the aim of promoting a better integration of the pre-Hispanic groups that inhabited the Amazon basin (Barreto 2009).…”

“…El venado en Tiwanaku fue un animal consumido, aunque no en grandes cantidades, y su piel y huesos se usaron en algunos objetos y herramientas; el ámbito de la cacería en Tiwanaku, si bien existente, ha sido escasamente estudiado. Tampoco es una imagen muy frecuente, pero cuando aparece lo hace en esculturas de mediano tamaño, tabletas de madera para inhalar psicotrópicos, hueso grabado y alguna cerámica pintada de servido, casi siempre de fondo rojo (Villanueva 2021). Destaca por su nariz triangular de grandes ollares y sus potentes colmillos similares a los del jaguar, además de portar, frecuentemente, un par de astas.…”
