Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Eight papers, from a symposium of the Pre-Columbian Society of Washington held in 1997, consider the place of human and animal sacrifice in Peru over a 2,000 year period, culminating around 1000 AD. The papers demonstrate that sacrifice played a significant role in the ritual practices of several cultures including Cupisnique, Chavin, Pucara, Nasca, Moche and Huari societies. The contributors also examine the survival of sacrifice in the archaeological record, including ceramics, artwork, embroideries, burials and skeletons, trophy-heads and architectural remains.
