Abstract
In this work we discuss the social role of the aryballos in northern Chile during the Tawantinsuyu or Late Period (1400-1536 ad). Additionally, the decoration of some of these objects shows Aymara iconographic motifs, while the different plant species kept in these vases (corn, beans, yucca, Lima bean) could be related to Collasuyu funeral rites. In summary, the circulation of forms with Inca influence (i.e. aryballos), mediated with local funeral rites, allowed for the negotiation of the identity of the subject in the funeral context.
