We are indebted to the Nayaka people who welcomed us and let us live with them and study their sites and ways of living. We would especially like to thank Carolina Mallol for her encouragement to develop this research and to the participants at the Ethnoarchaeology of Fire Symposium in the University of La Laguna for a fruitful discussion. We also thank Ximena Villagran and Manuel Arroyo-Kalin for their comments that helped to improve the manuscript. We thank Tonko Rajkovaca for his help in the production of thin sections. This work was supported by the People Programme (Marie Curie Actions) of the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007–2013) under REA agreement n° 623293 granted to D.E.F. at the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research, University of Cambridge.
