“The publication of Andean Archaeology is long overdue and a relief
to those who teach the subject. It offers state-of-the-art
summaries of exciting advances, especially concerning little-known
pre-Incan civilisations.” New Scientist
"I became really excited when I first saw Helaine Silverman's
edited volume... Andean Archaelogy, I thought, could indeed become
a source of core texts for undergraduate courses... The thirteen
chapters provide a mix of balanced scholarly review and pushy
polemics dotted with flashes of thoughtful insight." Alexander
Herrera, in Archaeological Review from Cambridge
