Lavishly illustrated in full color and black and white, this handsome reference provides a broad survey of the rich artistic heritage of pre-Columbian North and South America. Meticulously researched by archaeologists and anthropologists, the set features dramatic close-ups of engraved rock artifacts, cave paintings, pottery, and inscribed and sculpted bones. Covering the entire two continents from present-day Canada in the far north through Central America and down to the Andes Mountains and Patagonia in the south, it is a stunning visual and written record of the great variety of artworks created by Neolithic American peoples over many millennia.

When the Spanish conquered Mexico and Peru, they discovered in the Aztecs and Incas the latest in a long line of highly civilized peoples to have inhabited Mesoamerica and the Andes. This book describes the very different cultural traditions of these two groups, placing them in their historical and social contexts. Drawing on a range of material finds, from monumental architecture, stone carving and sculpture to woven textiles, illustrated codices and gold masks, the author unlocks some of the elaborate myths and belief systems that form part of the fascinating background to pre-Columbian art.
