Some unusual ceramics from esmeraldas, ecuador

Corbett, John M.·1953·American Antiquity

Abstract

In 1940, while on a commission for the Ecuadorian Government to the site of La Tolita in the province of Esmeraldas, Ecuador, the author had an opportunity to examine and photograph a few specimens in the collection of Sr. Yannuzzelli. Sr. Yannuzzelli maintained a ranch at the archaeological site of La Tolita which is located a few miles up the Rio Santiago from the coastal town of Limones and is not far from the Colombian border. Several large flat top mounds (Fig. 56, 1) and about 25 increasingly smaller ones comprise the present site. It had been visited about 30 years previously by both Uhle and Saville, but neither one conducted adequate excavations there. It is a favorite site for local inhabitants to pan gold, and in 1940, Sr. Yannuzzelli was actually engaged in carrying out extensive, large scale, placer mining operations within the archaeological zone.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
