G&A archaeologist contributes to book in honor of geographer Paul Kosok
David Chicoine (W. G. Haag Professor of Archaeology) recently co-authored a chapter in the book edited by 脕lvaro Higueras, Rafael Vega-Centeno and Viviana Siveroni and published by the Fondo Editorial PUCP in Lima.
The edited collection was inspired by geographer Paul Kosok's posthumous book Life, Land, and Water in Ancient Peru (1965), a landmark in landscape archaeology, the use of aerial imagery, and the study of water management in ancient times.
In their essay, written by Hugo Ikehara-Tsukayama, David Chicoine, Jenna Hurtubise, Kimberly Munro and Marco Pfeiffer and entitled "Comunidades y paisajes cambiantes del valle de Nepe帽a," the authors combine data from various field projects over the last two decades to provide an overview of the changing relationships between human societies and their landscapes in the Nepe帽a Valley of the north-central coast of Peru over the last 10,000 years.
