Book excerpt: Eminent Peruvian specialists present to us the cultures of the Early Horizon - the Chavin and the Paracas - and the later Viru, Vicus, Moche and Recuay, Wari and Tiwanaku, Lambayeque-Sican, Chimu, and Chancay cultures - and naturally, the Incas. A detailed iconography accompanied by maps and a chronology illustrates the texts, presenting works of gold, ceramics, and textiles, offering a testimony to the highly developed artistic techniques of these historic civilisations. -- Dust Jacket.
