Reviews
Description
This volume records the archaeological investigations of the author in the Quindio region, west of Bogota. The work (extensive survey, test pit excavation and documentary/museum researches) was carried out in the 1970s and is presented unchanged here, although the preface updates some of the references. Various problems with the survey methodology (such as overzealous graduate students!) allows the data presented only to indicate the potential of this archaeologically almost unknown region, which has nevertheless produced some of the finest pre-hispanic goldwork known. However suggested ceramic phases, results of excavations on features ranging from tombs to salt-pits and the text of an early investigation of the region Recuerdos de la Guaqueria en el Quindio by Luis Arango Cano (1924 in Spanish) are presented here and are bound to be of interest to specialists.
