The third volume in the Andean Archaeology series, this book focuses on the marked cultural differences between the northern and southern regions of the Central Andes, and considers the conditions under which these differences evolved, grew pronounced, and diminished. This book continues the dynamic, current problem-oriented approach to the field of Andean Archaeology that began with Andean Archaeology I and Andean Archaeology II. Combines up-to-date research, diverse theoretical platforms, and far-reaching interpretations to draw provocative and thoughtful conclusions.

Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews:

"A revision of the Peruvian Co-tradition as first elaborated in the 1940a (TM)s by Wendell C. Bennett and others. As the premise for a volume it is definitely important and also timely, especially in the light of new models for cultural trajectories in the Andes a ] . I whole-heartedly agree with Isbell and Silverman a ] that this is a probably one of the most important sites to emerge in recent Andean scholarship." (Kevin Lane, Antiquity, Vol. 82, 2008)

From the Back Cover

This book is intended to continue the dynamic, current problem-oriented approach to the field of Andean Archaeology that started with Andean Archaeology I and Andean Archaeology II. In this volume, the strong cultural differences between northern and southern regions of the Central Andes are examined and the conditions under which these differences evolved are explored.

Andean Archaeology III combines up-to-date research, diverse theoretical platforms, and far-reaching interpretations.
