Abstract

Este artículo propone utilizar la documentación de archivos coloniales tempranos y más precisamente, analizar el contexto lexical español de los topónimos aborígenes, tales como aparecen en litigios sobre tierras y testamentos de indígenas de la zona norte del Ecuador (región de Otavalo), para arrojar luces sobre los vestigios arqueológicos (tolas, pucaraes…) y en particular sobre las formas desaparecidas de uso del suelo y agricultura prehispánicas (camellones, rayas, tipo de cultivos, riego). Podemos concluir que las terminaciones de los topónimos preincaicos tenían un significado relacionado con la geografía y agricultura de la zona. Esta aproximación a la comprensión del idioma aborigen a partir de los únicos vestigios conservados, o sea los topónimos, puede constituir en el caso de restos arqueológicos destruidos a lo largo del tiempo o de cultivos hoy día desaparecidos, el único recurso disponible para saber de su antigua existencia y localización. El análisis de la toponimia local permite además una evaluación de la poca importancia del impacto incaico y ofrece un elemento más para la delimitación de un área cultural.

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.

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-08 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

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.
