52. Hacienda House, View from La Cárcel, in 2014

Description:: La Cárcel's main entrance faces the street, passing through a 6 cm. thick concrete and sand wall buttressed by regularly-spaced upright wooden (matazarnos) beams supporting the upper floor joists. The interior wall surfaces show that the exterior concrete face was backed by horizontal lathes of bamboo and reinforced with barbed wire. The upper story was accessed by a staircase resting atop a squared base across from a secondary door opening on the structure’s east side. A number of vertical openings served as windows for the second story, whose floor, having been described as constructed of cement and lime, may have survived until recently.

57. La Cárcel, View from the Hacienda House, in 2014

Description:: This historic structure is locally refrred to as La Cárcel or jail. Whether or not the structure served as a jail, or perhaps more likely as the store/warehouse of Lorenzo Tous’ later ventures, the property is littered with old refuse. Between 2012 and 2014, the upper façade had collapsed entirely. The area may have been the location of a communal kitchen, which historic photos place directly below the hacienda house.

59. A Coarse Earthenware Bottle Fragment From North Coast Peru

Description:: A partial vessel recovered from the Carpintero midden appears to be related to North Coast Peru Chimu styles, and can be tied to the ongoing colonial Peruvian production of coarse earthenwares in Chimu-Inka-Colonial styles. It is very similar to the “San Juan Molded” sherds recovered by Heyerdahl and Skjölsvold (1956).

60. It was about 10 kilometers (6 miles) inland from the coast up to the plateau where Campo Noruego was to be established. To begin with, they used the tractor to transport equipment, but soon found out that it was cheaper and quicker to hire local men with teams of oxen to do the job instead. The carts were brought along from Norway.

Description:: Norwegian colonists arrived on Floreana Island in 1925 and were invited to San Cristobal Island in September 1926. By 1928, only 14 remained in Campo Noruego. This photograph shows their equipment delivered via oxen-drawn cart, the same means of conveyance used by the hacienda to deliver products to its Bodega on the coast at Puerto Chico.

Description:: This photograph was taken by Capt. Rollo Beck in 1905 during the scientific visit of the California Academy of Sciences. It shows the port official and soldiers stationed on Chatham Island as they pose on board the schooner "Academy."

Effective power rested in the hands of Manuel J. Cobos,

Description:: Constructed of local volcanic rocks cemented with earth and lime, the house base is almost 2 m high in places and surmounted by a larger built-in staircase on the eastern side of the structure, with two smaller staircases to the north and south. The lack of an upper façade entrance to match the main stair case, suggests that the stone foundations were built for an earlier structure.

81. Manuel J. Cobos' Hacienda House, Hacienda El Progreso in 2014

Description:: The house site supported ornamented plastered concrete walls on its southern and eastern exposures, the latter having suffered partial collapse early in 2015. The surviving superstructure is clearly from a later construction. Exposed inner walls on its southern flank reveal concrete reinforced with what appear to be the rails from the small gauge Decauville system used to haul cane from the fields to the mill. Visitors in 1938 described a new house owned by Lorenzo Tous that was constructed on the original site. A 1947 photograph clearly shows a frame house incorporating the plastered walls under construction directly on top of the larger stone foundation that survives today.

100. The store in Progreso belonged to Alvarado and Cobos. Practically all workers on the island received their wages from the same gentlemen.

Description:: The Hacienda El Progreso included a warehouse, bakery, and store, which Nicolas Martínez (1915:39) tells us had all articles to be desired, including wines, liquors, and preserves. This image suggests that a building in the village was still functioning as a store in the 1920s.
