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 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-,$01517010 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781595203321 996 $aSacred geographies of ancient Amazonia$93753804 997 $aUNINA
