Description

Explore the deep connection between human civilization and the natural world with The Ethnobotany of Pre-Columbian Peru. Published by Routledge, this work examines the relationship between people and plants, covering how vegetation influenced food, shelter, art, religion, and language. This book provides a systematic reconstruction of the ethnobotany found in the prehistoric cultures of the Peruvian Central Andes. As research continues to reveal how New World agriculture spread, it is becoming clear that Peru served as a primary source for this development. This text highlights how plants were cultivated in this region at least 2,000 years before other major developments, making it a vital resource for those interested in the history of agriculture and ancient Andean societies. Whether you are studying the history of science, archaeology, or the origins of farming, this book offers a detailed look at one of the hearths of American civilization. It provides essential context for understanding how early humans utilized their environment to build complex societies.
