Life and Death at Paloma : Society and Mortuary Practices in a Preceramic Peruvian Village Hardback
by Jeffrey Quilter
Hardback
Description
Life and Death at Paloma, when published in 1989, was the first in-depth treatment of burials from a preagricultural South American village.
It remains a valuable resource used by students and scholars of Andean archaeology.
Jeffrey Quilter analyzes the life of Paloma's people during the transition from a hunting-gathering-fishing way of life to a more sedentary horticultural society and offers a study of preceramic Peruvian life through his analysis of this site's graves and their contents.
