Ancient Americas: Maya, Aztec, Inca And Beyond by Nicholas J. Saunders, ISBN 9780750933414

> Reference Books > History & Archaeology Books > Countries & Places Books Author: Nicholas J. Saunders In AD 1492, Christopher Columbus stumbled across the Americas while searching for a route to the spice rich Orient. From the great empires of the Aztecs in Mexico and the Inkas in Peru, to their innumerable prehistoric ancestors, and the mosaic of tribes living in highland valleys and tropical rainforests, the evidence pointed to a phenomenon of human culture which had developed in isolation from the rest of the world for at least 20,000 years. Pre-Columbian America represents a singular example of the human genius for creating civilization. Through a stimulating account of the major civilizations in Mesoamerica and the Andes, this book aims not only to give state-of-the-art syntheses of each culture, but also to build a living picture of the fundamentally different nature of indigenous Amerindian societies.
