Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Over the millennia, from stone tools among early foragers to clays to prized metals and mineral pigments used by later groups, mineral resources have had a pronounced role in the Andean world. Archaeologists have used a variety of analytical techniques on the materials that ancient peoples procured from the earth. What these materials all have in common is that they originated in a mine or quarry. Despite their importance, comparative analysis between these archaeological sites and features has been exceptionally rare, and even more so for the Andes. Mining and Quarrying in the Ancient Andes focuses on archaeological research at primary deposits of minerals extracted through mining or quarrying in the Andean region. While mining often begins with an economic need, it has important social, political, and ritual dimensions as well. The contributions in this volume place evidence of primary extraction activities within the larger cultural context in which they occurred. This important contribution to the interdisciplinary literature presents research and analysis on the mining and quarrying of various materials throughout the region and through time. Thus, rather than focusing on one material type or one specific site, Mining and Quarrying in the Ancient Andes incorporates a variety of all the aspects of mining, by focusing on the physical, social, and ritual aspects of procuring materials from the earth in the Andean past.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume results from the 2021 International Obsidian Conference (IOC), a virtual symposium held in the spring of 2021. Originally scheduled as an in-person event at the University of California, Berkeley, the conference transitioned to a virtual venue due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. More than 70 participants from a wide range of time zones stayed up into the wee hours of the night to hear the presentations and engage with others who share a passion for obsidian. Obsidian studies are a robust facet of archaeology, and this volume highlights a diverse range of research themes. Seven chapters in this volume feature studies from across the globe, organized broadly by region, including Europe, Africa, Central America, and South America. A separate section with an additional two chapters presents methodological developments in the field. …
