Summary: | Several recent models in Andean and non-Andean studies have postulated direct relationships between the dispersion of language families and archaeological cultures. One model emphasizes that expansive languages spread with the first agricultural societies; while another posits that linkages between languages and cultures vary considerably, and independently, depending upon the circumstances. These and other models are reviewed briefly in terms of the empirical, methodological, and conceptual parameters required to accept, modify, or reject them in the Andes. === Muchos modelos recientes en los estudios andinos y de otras partes del mundo han postulado relaciones directas entre la dispersión de las familias lingüísticas y las culturas arqueológicas. Un modelo enfatiza que las lenguas se diseminaron con las primeras sociedades agrícolas, mientras que otro propone que los vínculos entre las lenguas y las culturas varían considerable e independientemente de acuerdo con las circunstancias. Estos y otros patrones serán revisados, brevemente, en términos de los parámetros empíricos, metodológicos y conceptuales requeridos para aceptarlos, modificarlos o rechazarlos en los Andes. |
