Dissertation Research: Imperial Conquest and Consolidation and Forced Migration in the Saraguro Region, Ecuador

小行星9409586 在Katharina Schreiber博士的指导下，Dennis Ogburn先生将为他的博士论文收集数据。他将在厄瓜多尔高原的Saraguro地区进行考古实地考察。Ogburn先生和他的同事们将把研究集中在已知的印加遗址Ingapirca和Tambo布兰科，他们将对150 - 300平方公里的地区进行调查。史前遗址将被记录、拍照和绘制地图。将记录建筑数据，并收集所有陶瓷和文物。如有需要，亦会进行有限度的挖掘。博物馆收藏品将被检查。奥格本先生将试图确定印加人征服该地区时发生的变化。为了实现这一点，他将重建前印加和印加的定居和生存系统，并对两者进行比较。 通过对陶瓷的研究，他将深入了解人口连续性或变化的程度。 这项研究的目的是了解在简单的技术层面上，帝国是如何建立和维持的。 历史和民族历史证据表明，在相对较短的时间内，来自秘鲁高原的印加人将他们的控制区扩大到包括大部分安第斯山脉。他们似乎采用了一些方法来将征服的领土纳入他们的帝国并控制它们。其中之一包括大规模的人口流动。Ogburn先生希望通过深入研究其中一个领域来深入了解这些战略。 这项研究之所以重要，有几个原因。它将为许多考古学家提供感兴趣的数据。它将阐明社会控制和组织的机制，并将有助于培养有前途的青年科学家。 ***

9409586 Schreiber Under the direction of Dr. Katharina Schreiber, Mr. Dennis Ogburn will collect data for his doctoral dissertation. He will conduct archaeological fieldwork in the Saraguro region of highland Ecuador. Centering the study on the known Inca sites of Ingapirca and Tambo Blanco, Mr Ogburn and colleagues will conduct a survey of a 150 - 300 square km area. Prehistoric sites will be recorded, photographed and mapped. Architectural data will be noted and all ceramics and artifacts will be collected. If necessary, limited excavation will also be conducted. Available museum collections will be examined. Mr Ogburn will attempt to determine the changes which occurred when Incan peoples conquered the region. To accomplish this, he will reconstruct both pre-Inca and Incan settlement and subsistence systems and compare the two. Through study of ceramics he will gain insight into the extent of population continuity or change. The goal of this research is to understand how, at a simple technological level, empires are established and maintained. Historic and ethnohistoric evidence demonstrate that within a relatively short period of time Incan peoples from highland Peru expanded their area of control to include most of the Andes. It appears that they employed a number of methods to incorporate conquered territories into their empire and to control them. One of these included wholesale movement of peoples. Mr. Ogburn wishes to gain insight into such strategies through the intensive study of one such area. This research is important for several reasons. It will provide data of interest to many archaeologists. It will shed light on mechanisms of social control and organization, and will assist in the training of a promising young scientist. ***
