Abstract
Abstract Current linguistic and ethnohistoric models propose that the Aymara ethnic group were late migrants into the Titicaca basin, and favor Uru or Pukina ethnic groups as the authors of the Tiwanaku civilization, which dominated the Central Andes for roughly half a millennium AD 500–1000). A review of linguistic, ethnohistoric and archaeological data suggests that the Aymara have a substantial time depth in the basin (at least 2,000 years), are the people of Tiwanaku and may have been organized in a manner termed ‘salpicada’, which resulted in the historic pattern of intermingled Uru, Pukina and Aymara communities.
