Summary:This book is the first to describe indigenous archaeology in Latin America for an English speaking audience. Eighteen chapters primarily by Latin American scholars describe relations between indigenous peoples and archaeology in the frame of national histories and examine the emergence of the native interest in their heritage.

The global trend of indigenous empowerment today has renewed interest in history, making it a tool of cu.
