Update (May 7, 2009) on Archaeologists Murdered (August 2008) in Ayacucho, Peru - Suspect Apprehended

While on their way to Soras in Querobamba, Sucre Province to work with the Programa Qapac Ñan of the Instituto Nacional de Cultura (INC), an Inca roads project, archaeologist Yoni Roca of Ayacucho, Peru was brutally murdered and field partner's, Alcides Gavilan, body has never been found. The motive was robbery. Police apprehended one of the main suspects in the case, raising hopes that Alcides' body will be found, and those responsible brought to justice. Dr. José Ochatoma Paravicino recently sent a detailed announcement and several photos of the accused being transferred to Ayacucho: Photo 1; Photo 2; Photo 3; Photo 4; Photo 5;
Contact: José Ochatoma Paravicino .
Visit: CorreoPeru
Visit: El Comercio.

Since authorities stopped the search last fall, the Gavilan and Roca families have borne the burdensome costs to continue the search for Alcides' body and suspects, including trips to Lima and Soras at the request of authorities. Contributed aid can be made via PayPal through Ayni, Inc. or checks mailed to Barbara Wolff at 2223 Fordham Drive, Alexandria VA 22307. 100% of contributions received by Ayni will be delivered to the two families.
Contact: Barbara Wolff, barbarancha@yahoo.com or at (703) 768-7174.

CALL FOR PAPERS:

Archaeologies of Intrusiveness

Speakers will also tackle the intrusive activities of actors as diverse as archaeologists, looters, policy makers, and past cultural agents. Long-term shifts in the use, perception and re-use of landscapes and archaeological features will be studied to shed light on the entangled nature of site formation, tradition making, and cultural appropriation. Historic and prehistoric case studies will be drawn from different regions and time periods to help reach a better understanding of the concept of intrusiveness in archaeology from why and how certain sites are used, abandoned, and re-used over time, to the distribution of intrusive physical evidence, and archaeological methods to ethically deal with intrusive phenomena.

Newspapers

Andean Air Mail & Peruvian Times

is back and online after a 10-year hiatus, and is being re-launched as a Web-based multimedia magazine, covering news and features on Peru. The new publication, with Eleanor Griffis as the publisher, builds on a nearly 100-year tradition of excellence in English-language journalism carried on by three generations of the Griffis family, which published the West Coast Leader and the old Andean Air Mail & Peruvian Times newspapers, and later the Lima Times magazine and the Andean Report newsletter.

Arkeos

The aim of the journal is to create a place to debate archaeological topics, analysis and mainly the publication of the works done by undergraduate and graduate students of Archaeology of the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú.
