Summary:Pre-Columbian rock art in the Atacama region of Chile. The crown jewel of this ancient "gallery" is the rock art of Alero Taira, known to the scientific world since 1944 when discovered by Swede archaeologist Stig Rydén. "In this book, archaeologist and Head Curator José Berenguer presents the findings of three-and a-half decades of investigation at Taira, revealing a deeper understanding of the rock art by delving into the ideas, practices and religious beliefs of the Andean peoples."--Pages 8-9.
