Centuries before the rise of the Inca, the Moche created impressive monumental architecture and precious metal objects (c AD 100 - 800). New discoveries about this ancient coastal civilization have recently been uncovered at several sites in Peru, including the richest unlooted tomb ever discovered in the New World. This fascinating book examines these records and analyses connections between the visual arts and political representation in Moche culture.
