Scholars have long insisted that the Amazonian ecosystem placed severe limits on the size and complexity of its ancient cultures, but leading researcher Denise Schaan reverses that view, synthesizing exciting new evidence of large-scale land and resource management to tell a new history of indigenous Amazonia. Schaan also engages fundamental debates about the development of social complexity 410 0$aNew frontiers in historical ecology ;$vv. 3. 606 $aIndians of South America$zAmazon River Region$xAntiquities 606 $aIndigenous peoples$xEcology$zAmazon River Region 606 $aHuman geography$zAmazon River Region 606 $aSocial archaeology$zAmazon River Region 606 $aIndian pottery$zAmazon River Region 606 $aPetrolgyphs$zAmazon River Region 606 $aRock paintings$zAmazon River Region 607 $aAmazon River Region$xAntiquities 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIndians of South America$xAntiquities. 615 0$aIndigenous peoples$xEcology 615 0$aHuman geography 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aIndian pottery 615 0$aPetrolgyphs 615 0$aRock paintings 676 $a981/.1 700 $aSchaan$b Denise Pahl$f1962-,$0859820 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457380403321 996 $aSacred geographies of ancient Amazonia$91918634 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03493nam 2200565 450 001 9910267952703321 005 20221108033325.0 010 $a1-299-27742-X 010 $a0-470-39457-9 010 $a1-84704-576-6 010 $a0-470-61244-4 010 $a1-118-61399-6 035 $a(CKB)3230000000207207 035 $a(StDuBDS)AH25036394 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC700736 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC5205682 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC261985 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL261985 035 $a(OCoLC)829706610 035 $a(PPN)183435141 035 $a(EXLCZ)993230000000207207 100 $a20180130h20062005 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aMusic and acoustics $efrom instrument to computer /$fPhilippe Guillaume 210 1$aNewport Beach, California :$cISTE,$d2006. 210 4$dİ2005 215 $a1 online resource (199 p. ) $cill 225 0 $aSociete Francaise d'Acoustique 311 $a1-905209-26-6 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aSounds -- Music Instruments -- Scales and Temperaments -- Psychoacoustics -- Digital sound -- Synthesis and Sound Effects. 330 $aPresents an overview on the nature of musical sounds, from their production by acoustic music instruments to synthesized sounds obtained with computers.
