Isbn: 9781646427444 - enduring monuments: formative period transformations at pukara, peru (9 risultati)

hardcover. Condizione: Fine.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Enduring Monuments traces the architectural histories of monumental complexes and public spaces of the Pukara site in the Lake Titicaca Basin. Using data from three distinct areas--the Qalasaya, the Central Pampa, and the Northern Platform--Elizabeth A. Klarich provides a powerful diachronic and comparative perspective for understanding social and political transformations during the Late Formative period in Peru. In the early twentieth century, Peruvian scholars Luis E. Valcarcel and Julio C. Tello visited Pukara and shared images of its multicolored pottery and unique stone sculptures with colleagues across the world. A number of both small-scale and multiyear field projects have followed, with goals of refining Lake Titicaca Basin cultural chronologies, tracking Pukara-style material culture in the south-central Andes, restoring the structural integrity of the Qalasaya, and documenting the reoccupations of Pukara by Colla, Inca, and early Spanish colonial populations. Enduring Monuments synthesizes the findings of these diverse projects and shares the results of fieldwork and artifact analysis by the Pukara Archaeological Project since 2000. Using a "building biography" approach that tracks initial construction, major remodeling, and subsequent expansion efforts during the Middle and Late Formative periods (400 BC-AD 200), Klarich highlights transformations in material culture, settlement patterns, social hierarchy, and daily practices at Pukara and contemporaneous sites across the Titicaca Basin and situates Formative period Pukara within the vast anthropological and archaeological literature addressing monumentality, ritual practice, and incipient urbanism in complex societies in South America and beyond. "A reexamination of archaeological interpretations of monumental constructions and the broader significance of such enduring monuments, based on research at the site of Pukara, located near Pucara, a small town in the northern Lake Titicaca Basin, Peru"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
