Para las poblaciones indigenas la llegada de Colon al Caribe en
1492 significo una transformacion y reestructuracion de su mundo,
incluyendo cambios a niveles culturales, sociales, economicos y
politicos. En este trabajo se proponen modelos interpretativos
sobre la transformacion del paisaje indigena al colonial, a traves
de la aplicacion de una investigacion arqueologica regional que
integro los conceptos de taskscape y paisajes en conflicto con
analisis estadisticos y de Sistemas de Informacion Geografica para
evaluar patrones de distribucion de cultura material. Como
resultado se pudieron identificar y definir taskscapes indigenas a
distintas escalas espaciales, que permitieron el delineamiento del
paisaje antes de la llegada de Colon. Este resultado fue comparado
con evidencias del movimiento espanol en el norte de la isla,
obtenido de fuentes documentales y cartograficas coloniales
tempranas, lo que permitio observar las bases espaciales y
materiales de la transformacion del paisaje indigena al colonial.
Este trabajo permitio conocer que en la region Norte de la isla se
puede identificar la transformacion del paisaje indigena en dos
niveles. El primero, denominado Nivel Cotidiano, fue observado a
traves de los taskscapes en conflicto, los cuales muestran las
transformaciones en las tareas diarias llevadas a cabo
tradicionalmente por los grupos indigenas, y su disrupcion con
aquellas tareas impuestas en el nuevo regimen colonial. El segundo,
llamado Nivel del Imaginario, se divide en dos transformaciones: la
primera se identifico en la percepcion que los primeros espanoles
tuvieron de los grupos indigenas; y la segunda, se observo en el
cambio final del mundo indigena al mundo colonial, donde tanto las
practicas como las identidades previas fueron integradas y
parcialmente desaparecidas dentro de la idea del "Nuevo Mundo". De
acuerdo a las opiniones de historiadores y especialistas, a lo
largo de este libro se utiliza el toponimo Hayti para referirse al
nombre que los indigenas le dieron a la isla, y La Espanola para
referirse al toponimo dado por los espanoles (ver capitulo 1).
English abstract The arrival of Columbus to the Caribbean in 1492
marked a milestone in world history. In both the European and the
indigenous world, a set of economic, political and hierarchical
networks and relations were defined, structured and changed. These
changes affected the indigenous population at different cultural,
social and political levels. One way to approach the
transformations that occurred in the indigenous world is by
studying material culture patterns and their spatial distribution.
In this work a regional archaeological investigation was combined
with a theoretical framework that integrated: the concepts of
taskscape and contested landscapes with statistical analysis and
Geographic Information Systems, to evaluate the patterns of
material culture distribution and its cultural implications. The
research project was carried out on the coast of the current
Montecristi province, in northwest Dominican Republic. The theories
and methods were applied to different archaeological spatial
patterns as well as a set of environmental characteristics. This
allowed indigenous taskscapes to be defined at different spatial
scales, which in turn permitted the delineation of the indigenous
landscape before the arrival of Columbus. The archaeological
results were compared with evidence from the early colonial
chronicles and cartography for the north of the island. This
comparison highlighted the spatial and material bases for the
transformation of the indigenous landscape. The final results were
encapsulated by two transformations of the indigenous landscape.
The first, called the Everyday Level, was observed through
contested taskscapes, which reveal how traditional daily tasks
undertaken by indigenous groups were transformed and disrupted by
the new colonial regime. The second, called the Imaginary Level, is
built on two additional transformations. The first was identified
based on how the first Spaniards perceived indigenous groups. The
second was revealed in the final change of the indigenous world to
the colonial world, where both practices and previous identities
were integrated and partially disappeared within the idea of the
"New World."
