Abstract

ABSTRACT Identity acquisition is a lifelong process that begins prior to birth (passive), becomes more active with self-awareness, and continues throughout the enculturation process. We argue that in childhood, as a liminal period of the life course, individuals are subject to a combination of active and passive forces of identity acquisition, largely determined first by family/parental decisions, then by community decisions as part of the enculturation process. We test this idea by reconstructing episodes of identity acquisition across social age categories in a late prehispanic (AD 900–1300) skeletal sample from the site of El Cementerio from north-west Mexico, which represents the central community of a settlement system in the valley of Ónavas, Sonora, Mexico. Artificial cranial modification, dental modification, and the placement of funerary objects reflect intersecting identities and provide clues to social age and identity acquisition within the community.

墨西哥索诺拉,普雷西恐慌后期奥纳瓦斯山谷的童年与身份获取
身份获得是一个终生的过程,从出生之前(被动)开始,随着自我意识的提高而变得更加主动,并在整个文化适应过程中持续下去。我们认为,在童年时期,作为生命历程的一个阈值阶段,个体受制于身份获取的主动和被动力量的组合,这在很大程度上首先由家庭/父母的决定决定,然后由作为文化适应过程一部分的社区决定决定。我们通过重建来自墨西哥西北部El Cementerio遗址的前西班牙晚期(公元900-1300年)骨骼样本来验证这一观点,该遗址代表了墨西哥索诺拉州Ónavas山谷中一个定居系统的中心社区。人工颅骨改造、牙齿改造和随葬品的放置反映了交叉的身份,并为社会年龄和社区内的身份获取提供了线索。
