Abstract "Emanating from a colloquium in pre-Columbian art and archaeology held at the University of Chile in Santiago, cosponsored by Dumbarton Oaks, the Cotsen Institute of Archaeology (as a Cotsen Advanced Seminar), and the State University of New York at Binghamton, Images in Action presents interpretations of a large corpus of art and iconography from the Southern and South-Central Andes, bringing together some of the most esteemed scholars in the field. Thirty authors, all with extensive experience in the Southern Andes, examine artifacts, artworks, textiles, archaeology and architecture to develop creative new insights on the cultural interactions between people in prehistoric western South America. The volume's nearly 700 images are archived in an online database with metadata, fully referenced in the text, and searchable."-- Back cover.
