Abstract
Abstract During the second and first millennia BC in the southern Andes (Bolivian Plateau, northern Chile, and northwestern Argentina), the reduction of residential mobility, domestication of camelids, and diversity of food production inaugurated village life. Early manifestations of public infrastructure associated with village life can be found in association with different groups living in the southern Andes during the first millennium before our era. The vestiges of a network of trails that permitted the circulation of ideas, goods, and people contributed to the construction of an outer world. This was an effort of ecological complementarity that was not exclusively geared toward the supply of food, but rather complementarity of a social and cosmological nature. Material exchanges built reciprocal links on a large geographic scale and facilitated distinctions built into the emerging organization of corporate complexity.
