Description

This book gives a representative overview of recent developments in archaeometry. It reveals the enormous potential of well executed multidisciplinary research. Furthermore, it is an example of how complex cultural history can be reconstructed in a combined effort of different disciplines. And last but not least it presents a detailed history of human development as well as its interaction with natural environment in the Nasca region, based on South America's most detailed numeric archaeochronology.
