Book Reviews of The Moche (Peoples of America)
Book Review: Interesting and boring
Summary: 3 Stars
Garth Bawden starts to point out that a civilization does not have a certain date at which it starts nor ends. The Moche people also had their ancestors and evolved into a new civilization. This all happened in different timeframes in the northern, middle and southern part of their reign. Garth has little concern for ceramics but has many theories to prove his view. The book is devided in the social part of the moche and the second part about their origins (shouldn't this be the way around?). In all there are many dublicates in both parts. This means that the book is rather hard to read. The end of the book is also less elaborate, as if he wanted to end this torture. Certainly not suited for your first aquitance with the Moche, but it has some interesting chapters. The photo's are of very poor quality.
