Growing the Taraco Peninsula
Indigenous Agricultural Landscapes
Maria C. Bruno is an anthropologist and co-director of the Taraco Archaeological Project and has been conducting research on the development of farming in the Lake Titicaca Basin of Bolivia since the early 2000s. Her work has contributed to a greater understanding of the domestication of the Andean chenopods, quinoa, and kañawa; Indigenous small-holder intensification strategies; and the trajectories of early social-political developments in the region.
