The treatment of archaeological or prehistoric materials emphasizes the sociological meaning of these materials, rather than types of pottery, building, art motifs, etc. An understanding is sought as to how kinship groups, communities, states, and empires of different kinds were formed. Explanations are offered as to why the different varieties of prehistoric and modern South American Indian cultures developed. Thus, the authors delve into sociocultural theory, and advance explanations in terms of: cultural ecological adaptations; the role of surplus production; the role of diffused economic and technological elements and religious, military, and political patterns; and the developing needs of authority and social integration. While many Indians retain today somewhat aboriginal cultures in South America, many more have modified cultures resulting from western influences. The treatment of these modified cultures is in a framework of comparative perspective with similar changes among native populations in other world areas. This book is unique in the field because it treats the South American Indians not only in terms of their prehistoric and aboriginal cultures, but also in terms of their acculturation from the Spanish and Portuguese Conquest up to modern times, when a world industrial culture is reaching native populations everywhere.
