Abstract
Se discute la relación entre las prácticas pastoriles y su reflejo en el arte rupestre del Cerro Cuevas Pintadas (CCP). Se realiza un análisis temático de los motivos relacionados con la vida pastoril para los períodos Temprano (primer milenio d.C.) y Tardío-Inca (1000-1500d.C.). La cantidad, la distribución y el detalle de los motivos de camélidos afirman la importancia que tuvo este lugar para el pastoreo prehispánico en la región. La disposición de los camélidos (en grupos y en hilera) y su asociación tanto con la figura humana (escutiformes, uncus), como con otros zoomorfos (cánidos y felinos), se repi- ten conformando temas que son registrados en este trabajo. La ubicación de estos conjuntos de imágenes en espacios públicos da cuenta de una ritualidad grupal y reiterada asociada al pastoreo.
The relationship between pastoralism and its representation in the rock art of Cerro Cuevas Pintadas (CCP) is discussed. A thematic analysis of the motifs related to pastoral life from the Early (first millennium AD) and Late (1000-1450 AD) Periods is carried out. The quantity, distribution, and detail of camelid motifs highlight the importance the site had for the pre-hispanic pastolarists in the region. The arrangement of camelids (in groups and in rows) and the association with human figures (shield shape motifs, Andean clothing) as well as with other zoomorphic figures (canines, felines), are replicated, as defining themes that are detailed in this paper. The conscious placement of these sets of images in public spaces accounts for repeated group rituality associated with pastoralism.
