| Summary: | The archeological studies of ceramics in Southern Ecuador have based their analyses on shapes and designs in order to generate chronologies and interregional relationships, paying less attention to the technical aspects and the tools that have been used in the manufacturing process. This ethnographic study registered the techniques used in two Southern highlands communities —Jatumpamba and Las Nieves— which share the use of beaters or huactanas, tools of possible pre-hispanic origin. The results of the comparative analysis of these two locations, demonstrates the need to generate new lines of research on ceramic technology, both in archaeological and ethnographic contexts. |
