How do we know anything about the people who preceded the Incas? Discussions of topics as varied as acoustics at Chavín de Huántar, the Nazca lines, the iconography of the Moche Sacrifice Ceremony and the significance of Machu Picchu are complemented by information from textiles, pottery and fabulous gold objects, plus the latest evidence from archaeological excavations. If it sounds tough-going, the book is actually accessible and intriguing. The book includes photographs, maps and site diagrams.
