Download or read book Handbook of Rock Art Research written by David S. Whitley and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2001 with total page 876 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While there has always been a large public interest in ancient pictures painted or carved on stone, the archaeological study of rock art is in its infancy. But intensive amounts of research has revolutionized this field in the past decade. New methods of dating and analysis help to pinpoint the makers of these beautiful images, new interpretive models help us understand this art in relation to culture. Identification, conservation and management of rock art sites have become major issues in historical preservation worldwide. And the number of archaeologically attested sites has mushroomed. In this handbook, the leading researchers in the rock art area provide cogent, state-of-the-art summaries of the technical, interpretive, and regional advances in rock art research. The book offers a comprehensive, basic reference of current information on key topics over six continents for archaeologists, anthropologists, art historians, and rock art enthusiasts.

Download or read book Archaeologies of Rock Art written by Andrés Troncoso and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-28 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rock art in South America is as diverse as the continent itself. In this vast territory, different peoples produced engravings, paintings, and massive earthworks, from the Atacama to the Amazon. These marks on the landscape were made by all different kinds of peoples, from some of the earliest hunter-gatherers in the continent, to the very complex societies within the Inca Empire. This book brings together the work of specialists from throughout the continent, addressing this diversity, as well as the variety of approaches that the Archaeology of rock art has taken in South America. Constructed of eleven thought-provoking chapters and arranged in three thematic sections, the book presents different theoretical approaches that are currently being used to understand the roles rock art played in prehistoric communities. The editors have skillfully crafted a book that presents the contribution the study of South American rock art can offer to the global research of this materiality, both theoretically and methodologically. This book will interest a broad range of scholars researching in archaeology, anthropology, history of art, heritage and conservation, as well as undergraduate and postgraduate students who will find interesting case studies showcasing the diverse ways in which rock art can be approached. Despite its focus on South America, the book is intended as a contribution towards the global study of rock art.

Download or read book Nukak written by Gustavo Politis and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Gustavo Politis, one of the most renowned South American archaeologists, comes the first in-depth study in English of the last “undiscovered” people of the Amazon. His work is groundbreaking and urgent, both because of encroaching guerrilla violence that makes Nukak existence perilously fragile, and because his work with the Nukak represented one of the last opportunities to conduct research with hunter-gatherers using contemporary methodological and the theoretical tools. Through a rich and comprehensive ethno-archaeological portrait of material culture “in the making,” this work makes methodological and conceptual advances in the interpretation of hunter-gather societies. Politis’s conclusions, based on six years of original research and on comparative analysis, are integrative and contribute to the identification of the multiple factors involved in the formation of hunter-gatherer archaeological assemblages.

Book excerpt: Este volumen ofrece una visión panorámica de la arqueología histórica de Venezuela, siendo la primera vez que un estudio de esta índole está disponible tanto en inglés como en español. Reúne el trabajo de destacados arqueólogos venezolanos e incluye trabajos de campo recientes e investigaciones inéditas, abarcando una amplia gama de estudios de caso desde la época precolonial hasta el periodo republicano. Estructurado en cinco partes, el libro comienza con una revisión exhaustiva de la arqueología histórica venezolana, destacando sus contribuciones y sugiriendo futuras direcciones. La primera sección explora las realidades indígenas precoloniales y del periodo de contacto, mientras que la segunda examina las experiencias indígenas del colonialismo, la misionización y la transformación de paisajes. La tercera sección investiga la producción de importantes bienes venezolanos: el café, el azúcar y la sal, así como las actividades de contrabando. La cuarta sección se centra en la arqueología de ciudades fundacionales como Coro, Santo Tomé, Maracaibo y Caracas. La quinta sección examina la vida cotidiana, incluido el auge del consumismo y las prácticas sociales en torno a la muerte. Un epílogo subraya la necesidad de un enfoque histórico crítico en la antropología y la arqueología. Profusamente ilustrado y referenciado, este libro pone de relieve la extensa y diversa investigación arqueológica histórica en Venezuela, ofreciendo nuevas perspectivas a los académicos hispanohablantes y no hispanohablantes. Su presentación bilingüe aspira a influir en la arqueología histórica de América Latina, el Caribe y el resto del mundo.
