This new volume is a masterly narrative that takes us from the first settlement, over 10,000 years ago, to the Spanish conquest at the close of the 16th century. Drawing on the recent findings of archaeologists, anthropologists, and historians, this account of ancient Peru--and its archaeology and art--ending with the Inca empire, is a masterful, fascinating tale of adaptation to extraordinary environmental extremes. In addition to a compelling text, there are over 200 illustrations.
