Bakelite/vulcanite tokens are extremely rare in Ecuador, but were a global phenomenon in the latter half of the 19th century. Five tokens were recovered, all hard vulcanized rubber (commonly called ebonite or vulcanite), with two examples of orange 20 centavo tokens, and three black five centavo tokens. The latter are all marked “ANACARSIS MEDINA/ CHANDUY and were the main form of coinage circulating on the hacienda during Cobos’ tenure. We know little of Anacarsis Medina, but assume he may have been an old business contact of Cobos’.

Excavations of the main dump, the Carpintero midden, were undertaken on the property of the town carpenter. The carpentry (upper right) and the family house (left) surround a lower courtyard where excavation took place. The Cobos hacienda house lies directly behind and upslope from the carpentry.

All of the white ceramic buttons were made with the Prosser process, patented in 1840. White china buttons were exported all over the world from the 1840s onwards by England, France, the United States, and Germany.
