 Prof. Méndez's Articles
The punas(4) of Huanta province in Ayacucho are located within the area where the Shining Path (Sendero Luminoso) began its terrorist attacks in 1980, thereby initiating a war that soon took hold of Peru.
His description of the area which lay 'to the eastward [of the village of Huanta]' as 'the wild country of the Iquichanos' is highly telling of the reputation that the area and its people had by then attained Such allusions would, in turn, powerfully affect the peasants' selfperception.
Studying a more recent epoch and another region (the province of Chumbivilcas, in Cuzco), the anthropologist Deborah Poole finds that puna is usually associated with the idea of 'empty spaces' and portrayed as being aloof from the state, ideas which she convincingly demonstrates did not correspond to reality.
