Description
The Ancient Americas outlines the enormously long and complex cultural history of Mesoamerica, as well as the Andean continuum. It combines an overview of pre-Columbian historical events and situations with a consideration of important research problems and efforts and places their last flowering of indigenous complex civilizations within their respective geographic and sociocultural frameworks. The heart of this volume is an exhaustive digest and analysis of available data on each epoch from English-, Spanish-, French-, and German-language sources. In addition, there is also a topically arranged bibliography of over a thousand entries.
