About this title

Synopsis

An archaeological study of ancient settlement patterns in Peru’s rugged and diverse central highlands.

Review

This publication serves . . . as a fantastic educational tool. How do we survey? How do we think through a survey? What gets recorded, what gets left out? And what justifications exist for these decisions? Students and young scholars can find many answers here. --Hendrik Van Gijseghem, Universit� de Montr�al, in Journal of Anthropological Research, vol. 70, 2014

[T]hese data are now likely to
feed back upon specific discussions, old and new.
These may include the interlinked dynamics of
indigenous politics and economics discussed by
processual archaeology throughout the 1990s and the
role of vessel form and ceramic decoration as keystone
chronological markers. Traditional discussions on the
history of early settlement in varied high altitude
ecological settings and the conditions, nature and
timing of the expansion of pastoralism, as well as
more recent concerns regarding the links between
herding and farming as economic practices vis-a-vis
ethnic and political differentiation in the central
highlands and beyond will also profit from this
volume. . . . the most compelling reason to recommend this volume to Andeanist libraries is the impeccable presentation of the colossal surface survey itself, well peppered with thoughtful reflections on the methods deployed and the results obtained. --Alexander Herrera W., Commission for Archaeology of Non-European Cultures, German Archaeological Institute, in Antiquity, Vol. 88, Issue 341, September 2014
