Bibliography

As you gather the sources for your Wikipedia contribution, think about the following:

Is the source from a reliable publication?
- Reliable publications include established newspapers, academic journals and books, textbooks, and other published sources with reputations for accuracy and fact-checking.
- Unreliable sources include blog posts and other self-published works, press releases, and social media posts.
Is the source verifiable?
- In order for a source to be considered verifiable, other editors should be able to consult the source.
Is the source independent of the subject?
- Is the source connected in any way to the subject? This is especially important when writing biographies or about organizations.
- For example, if you were writing a biography, sources like the person's webpage or personal blog would not be considered independent.
Is the source primary or secondary?
- Primary sources include first-hand accounts, autobiographies, and other original content.
- Wikipedia allows limited use of primary sources, but typically only for straightforward, descriptive statements of facts, and only if they are published and verifiable without requiring specialized knowledge.
- Secondary sources should be the main basis for a biography on Wikipedia.
If you're working on a topic related to medicine or psychology, ensure that your sources follow these special guidelines.
If you're creating a new article, consider the following:
- Ensure that your topic meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines.
- In order for a topic to meet the notability requirement, you must be able to identify 2-3 sources that are reliable, verifiable, and independent of the subject you're writing about.
- Finding sufficient sources to establish notability can be especially hard when writing about people or organizations.
- Sources that are not independent of the subject might be useful additions, but don't count towards the notability requirement.
- Wikipedia has developed special guidelines for writing about living persons. Please follow these carefully.
- Wikipedia has a series of guidelines for writing about different categories of people, such as academics and artists. If you're trying to create a new entry about a living person, please look at these carefully.

If you're not sure whether a source is reliable, ask a librarian! If you have questions about Wikipedia's sourcing rules, you can use the Get Help button below to contact your Wikipedia Expert.

Bibliography

Edit this section to compile the bibliography for your Wikipedia assignment. Add the name and/or notes about what each source covers, then use the "Cite" button to generate the citation for that source.e

Group:

Tantaleán, Henry. “The Paracas Society of Prehispanic peru.” Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Latin American History, 29 Sept. 2021, https://doi.org/10.1093/acrefore/9780199366439.013.981. ^[1]

Just a nice, easy encyclopedia for citing basic facts, many of which are missing on the Wiki page. It won't be a major source, but is nice to have.

Sophie:

There's so little about Paracas politics/societal structure/everyday life, so that's where I'm focusing my attention

Stanish, Charles, et al. “Feasting and the evolution of cooperative social organizations circa 2300 B.P. in Paracas culture, Southern peru.” Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, vol. 115, no. 29, 2 July 2018, https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1806632115.^[2]

This source analyzes an early Paracas site's offerings and remains of feasts to see how political and economic alliances were built in the region. They seemed to build wide alliances early in their history rather than making local alliances while they expanded.

Tantaleán, Henry, et al. “The final days of Paracas in Cerro del Gentil, Chincha Valley, Peru.” PLOS ONE, vol. 11, no. 5, 4 May 2016, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0153465.^[3]

A late Paracas religious site/monument that seems to show signs of an abandonment/termination ritual that could potentially indicate reorganization of the political and social structure.

Gómez-Mejía, Juliana, et al. “Intentional cranial modification as a marker of identity in Paracas Cavernas, south-central coast of Peru.” Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, vol. 41, Feb. 2022, p. 103264, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jasrep.2021.103264.^[4]

I may end up sharing this source with Wren or just turning it over to her entirely: it looks at cranial modification, which is alluded to but never mentioned on the Wikipedia page (!!) and how it was different among social classes and genders. While there were differences between genders, it was not between social classes or where people were buried.

Osborn, Jo, et al. “Reassessing the chronology of Topará emergence and Paracas decline on the Peruvian South Coast: A bayesian approach.” Radiocarbon, vol. 65, no. 4, Aug. 2023, pp. 930–952, https://doi.org/10.1017/rdc.2023.67.^[5]

The Topára section in the Wiki is completely uncited, and it contradicts this new article based on carbon dating. This study finds that the Paracas declined before the emergence of the Topára. In general I want to improve the sections about the Paracas' interactions with other cultures, so this is a good starting point.

Mader, Christian, et al. “Economic directness in the western andes: A new model of Socioeconomic Organization for the Paracas culture in the first millennium BC.” Latin American Antiquity, vol. 34, no. 2, 17 May 2022, pp. 385–403, https://doi.org/10.1017/laq.2022.40.^[6]

Good article on the economics of the Paracas culture and how it played into daily life

Sabatini, Francesca, Martina Bacigalupo, Ilaria Degano, Anna Javér, and Marei Hacke. “Revealing the Organic Dye and Mordant Composition of Paracas Textiles by a Combined Analytical Approach.” Heritage Science 8, no. 1 (November 27, 2020). https://doi.org/10.1186/s40494-020-00461-5. ^[9]

Silverman, Helaine, and William H Isbell, eds. “Handbook of South American Archaeology.” SpringerLink. Accessed April 28, 2024. https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-0-387-74907-5. ^[10]

Woodhouse, Iain H. “The Geoglyphs of Palpa, Peru: Documentation, Analysis and Interpretation.” The Photogrammetric Record 22, no. 120 (December 2007): 362–63. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1477-9730.2007.00448_2.x. ^[11]

Wren:

Verano, John W. 2016. Holes in the Head : The Art and Archaeology of Trepanation in Ancient Peru. Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection.^[12]

Discusses roots of trepanation in Peru (Paracas), discusses mummy bundles & excavations.

Lambers, Karsten. The Geoglyphs of Palpa, Peru: Documentation, Analysis, and Interpretation. Bonn: Kommission für Archäologie Außereuropäischer Kulturen, 2021.^[13]

Covers the geoglyphs, could work into a whole paragraph or two instead of the drone studies stub; a lot of Nasca discussion to wade through

Collyns, Dan. “Scratching the Surface: Drones Cast New Light on Mystery of Nazca Lines.” The Guardian, May 24, 2020. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/may/24/nazca-lines-drones-new-discoveries-peru. ^[14]

Another recent source on the paracas palpa geoglyphs with some easier quotes to grab

Tomasto-Cagigao E, Reindel M, Isla J. Paracas Funerary Practices in Palpa, South Coast of Perú. In: Eeckhout P, Owens LS, eds. Funerary Practices and Models in the Ancient Andes: The Return of the Living Dead. Cambridge University Press; 2015:69-86.^[15]

Funerary practices

Kriss, Dawn, Ellen Howe, Judith Levinson, Adriana Rizzo, Federico Carò, and Lisa DeLeonardis. "A Material and Technical Study of Paracas Painted Ceramics." Antiquity 92, no. 366 (12, 2018): 1492-1510. doi:https://doi.org/10.15184/aqy.2018.164. ^[16]

Ceramics :)

Examples:

Luke, Learie. 2007. Identity and secession in the Caribbean: Tobago versus Trinidad, 1889–1980 Kingston, Jamaica: University of the West Indies Press.
- This is a book published by a university press, so it should be a reliable source. It also covers the topic in some depth, so it's helpful in establishing notability.
Galeano, Gloria; Bernal, Rodrigo (2013-11-08). "Sabinaria , a new genus of palms (Cryosophileae, Coryphoideae, Arecaceae) from the Colombia-Panama border". Phytotaxa.
- This is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, so it should be a reliable source. It covers the topic in some depth, so it's helpful in establishing notability.
Baker, William J.; Dransfield, John (2016). "Beyond Genera Palmarum: progress and prospects in palm systematics". Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society.
- This is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, so it should be a reliable source for a specific fact. Since it only dedicates a few sentences to the topic, it can't be used to establish notability.
