One of the earliest instruments of the Americas, ancient
Panpipes
or
Panflutes
have been excavated from South America all the way north to Canada, with oldest known examples dating back to 4200 BC. Peru is deemed the origin of this gorgeous instrument, and modern Andean panpipes, which may be called
Siku, Antara or Zampoña
, are very popular today across the continents and around the globe.
Long before the conquistadores, long before the Incas, the music of the woodwind instrument we call the Panpipes or Panflute was echoing across both American continents. As the discipline of modern archaeology continues to grow, researchers are slowly beginning to come to an understanding of the pivotal importance of Peru in the story of mankind. Today, much of the world's food supply (corn, potatoes, beans, tomatoes, sunflowers) owes its origins to the uniquely gifted farmers of ancient Andean civilizations. These vital crops slowly spread north from South America so that by the time Europeans arrived in what would become the United States, they found these landrace crops being cultivated from one end of the country to the other. It is conjectured that the Panpipes followed a similar process of distribution. The earliest known example of the Panpipes was found at Cahuachi, Peru, dated to 4200 BC - a time that corresponds with what is called the Honda Period of this region.
Researchers point to three different ancient Peruvian cultures as early users of the panpipes: the Nasca Culture (1,100 BC - 750 AD), the Paracas Culture (600 BC - 175 BC), and the Moche Culture (100 AD - 800 AD).
About Us
Our Story and Our Mission
Fair trade provides a sustainable economy to preserve culture and stop exploitation.
Cut out the middleman, buy direct from the producer at great value.
Our project in Peru is about promoting and employing skilled artisans in need for a market place, upholding fair trade values, respecting local traditions and family structures. Nestled in a dusty street, in one of the poorest suburbs of Lima, surrounded by large factories and hillside slums, our artisan workshop in San Juan de Lurigancho employs and houses dozens of local families of skilled talented artists. Fair trade wages and a sustainable workplace environment have given confidence, pride, inspiration to the artists contributing to their cultural preservation of tradition, lifestyle and dignity.
As a result of the long-term relationships that we have nurtured with our artisan-partners, we have seen many improve their standard of living. Our endless objectives to improve quality and consistency along with marketing traditional crafts to a worldwide marketplace have driven Sanyork Fair Trade, Inc. to produce top of the line value gifts, accessories and apparel. Join us in celebrating the wonderful history and culture of the Andes, brought to us by our artisans who put their hearts and souls into all they’ve produced.
Here mutual respect and fair traded crafts don't cost more than other goods because the large percentage taken by the middle people is taken out. The cost remains the same as traditionally traded goods but the distribution of the cost of the product is different. Sanyork Fair Trade can prove that profits and socially and economically responsible working conditions are a feasible combination. Your world might not change through the purchase of fair trade products but for the producer of them it sure will. We believe you should be proud of what you buy.
