Coming soon from Cambridge University Press (with pre-order discount) Funerary Practices and Models in the Ancient Andes The Return of the Living Dead Edited by Peter Eeckhout, University of Brussels; and Lawrence S. Owens, Birkbeck College, University of London This edited volume focuses on the funerary archaeology of the Pan-Andean area in the pre-Hispanic period. The contributors examine the treatment of the dead and provide an understanding of how these ancient groups coped with mortality, as well as the ways in which they strove to overcome the effects of death. The contributors also present previously unpublished discoveries and employ a range of academic and analytical approaches that have rarely - if ever - been utilised in South America before. The book covers the Formative Period to the end of the Inca Empire, and the chapters together comprise a state-of-the-art summary of all the best research on Andean funerary archaeology currently being carried out around the globe.
