It remains a valuable resource used by students and scholars of Andean archaeology. Jeffrey Quilter analyzes the life of Paloma's people during the transition from a hunting-gathering-fishing way of life to a more sedentary horticultural society and offers a study of preceramic Peruvian life through his analysis of this site's graves and their contents. 606 $aIndians of South America -- Funeral customs and rites -- Peru 606 $aIndians of South America -- Peru -- Antiquities 606 $aPaloma Site (Peru) 606 $aPeru -- Antiquities 606 $aIndians of South America$xFuneral customs and rites$zPeru 606 $aIndians of South America$zPeru$xAntiquities 607 $aPaloma Site (Peru) 607 $aPeru$xAntiquities 615 4$aIndians of South America -- Funeral customs and rites -- Peru. 615 4$aIndians of South America -- Peru -- Antiquities. 615 4$aPaloma Site (Peru). 615 4$aPeru -- Antiquities. 615 0$aIndians of South America$xFuneral customs and rites 615 0$aIndians of South America$xAntiquities. 676 $a985 700 $aQuilter$b Jeffrey$0898918 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811056303321 996 $aLife and death at Paloma$94087269 997 $aUNINA
