| Sumario: | Studies about traditional woven waist belts, or chumpi in quechua, have not yet considered their large and ample distribution across the Peruvian territory, nor their diversity and rich contemporary expression. The purpose of this study is to bring attention to the existence of other textile traditions in Peru besides the well-known productions of the Andean south. These traditions demonstrate the possibility of the coexistence between traditional values and modernity. We observe the addition of new designs or personalized variations in the decoration of the waist belts, as well as the ways in which historical and cultural facts from the popular memory are incorporated in the materiality of the textiles as well as in their symbolic representations.The multiple design variations in cherished woven belts kept by weaver families, examined during our field work, lead us to consider not only the structural aspects of these textiles but also their day to day reality from a social, historical and cultural perspective. This paper explains the existence of the Mantaro woven belt in the daily life of rural and urban populations as an ever-present element in the costumes worn in the performative events of the wanka modern identity. |
