Textiles of the ancient Paracas Peoples of Peru,
By K. Maxwell "katmax1" (Sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Paracas Ritual Attire: Symbols of Authority in Ancient Peru (Civilization of the American Indian) (Hardcover)
I got this book because I was researching some non-textile paracas ritual items. I found that 98% of this book details the beautiful and complex textiles of the Paracas. It had little of what I actually wanted, but it does give an excellent background to surviving Paracas textile (and textile related) artifacts.It filled in background blanks for me and this book would be excellent for anybody who is researching, or who wants to know more about these textiles. In parts it is quite technical and detailed. There is a colour section illustrating various textiles in the centre of the book, but the emphasis in on scholary interpretation and not light reading. |
