Obsidian Craft Production in Ancient Central Mexico pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
When the Spanish conquistadors first encountered the great commercial markets of central Mexico they were amazed by the richness and the diversity of products, as well as the level of organization. Ruling elites nurtured and supervised these markets, which were based on a complex division of labor within society, including a diversity of highly skilled craft specialists. The appearance of such craft specialists--"who produced large quantities of goods for other households--"represented a significant and fundamental change in the structure of prehistoric economies. In central Mexico one particularly important craft specialty was the making of obsidian prismatic blades, the cutting tools of choice. Unlike most other craft activities, obsidian craft production can be studied using archaeological techniques.
