Alfred Kroeber’s groundbreaking expedition in 1926 to the Nazca region yielded an unparalleled set of excavation reports which were left unfinished at Koeber’s death in 1960.  This volume finally collates them into the only complete analysis and seriation of the beautiful painted pottery of Nazca, complete with over 400 photographs and drawings of objects uncovered in the excavations, some in full colour. His report is also notable for its rare discussion of Nazca architecture, its description of cloth, hair bundles and other artifact groups, its accurate analysis of Nazca human remains, and even for one of the earliest descriptions and photographs of the famous Nazca lines.  Includes a bibliography.  Large hardback.  283 pages.  Good condition.  Cat No 4592
