Smyth sewing is a method of bookbinding where groups of folded pages (referred to as signatures) are stitched together using binder thread. Each folded signature is sewn together individually with multiple stitches and then joined with other signatures to create the complete book block. This is the traditional and best method of bookbinding.

Paperback. Condición: Very Good. To the developed world, the destruction of the Amazon rainforest has become an issue of vital concern. The ever-diminishing indigenous tribes inhabiting this vast region of beauty are equally threatened. Yet while the Western passion for folk art continues to thrive, the extraordinary creations of the peoples of the Amazon have until now received little attention. This book is their definitive documentation. A variety of objects both ceremonial and utilitarian are illustrated in over 150 specially commissioned photographs - exotic headresses, feather dance costumes, anteater masks, body ornaments of all kinds, ceramics, basketry and weapons - while the text defines the anthropological significance of each artifact. The objects embody a wealth of natural materials, from iridescent beetle wings and plumage, to animal teeth and woods - surviving expressions of a fragile environment. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condición: Fine. A Further Exploration of the Rowe Chavin Seriation and Its Implications for North Central Coast Chronology Introduction From the Foreword: " As THE TITLE INDICATES, I intend this seriation to act as a supplement to, rather than a replacement of, John Rowe's analysis. However, the present study was done as independently as possible of Rowe's exact procedure, a task facilitated by his previous exposition of the Chavin style (Rowe 1962, 1967), which delineated the main characteristics of its evolution and was not intended to provide an exhaustive discussion of all diagnostic criteria. The primary aim here is to make the content of each period more explicit. Thus I hope that it will now be easier to make precise statements about the dating of a particular piece, by employing some of the features and organization developed here, than was possible by using Rowe's published works alone. While agreeing with Rowe (1967:77) that "it is not necessary to be able to place every piece," I have tried to assign more pieces to specific periods than he did, with the hope of detecting patterns from the resultant array of dated specimens. The relative dating of the Chavinoid centers of the North Central Coast will be a unifying problem of this exercise. Immediately relevant, then, is a seriation of the human figure, a task not undertaken by Rowe. Donald Lathrap has assembled some notes on the subject which he was kind enough to let me examine. A similar examination of the chronological implications of the snake motif is a further requirement in this study. Here, too, the discussion follows Lathrap's notes quite closely, although I hope that enough original observations will follow so as to make this more than a clerical exercise in judicious plagiarism. At this point in the history of research in the problem area, this paper can be regarded as no more than an argument in relative dating that will either be supported or refuted by future stratigraphic work. . Methodological Considerations'. " SERIATING across topography and distance, as I will attempt to do here, is at best a hazardous undertaking. However, Rowe has demonstrated that the Chavin style was sufficiently rigid in the control and application of its canons to warrant qualified comparisons with a coastal valley as far away as lea (Rowe 1967: 73-4; Menzel, Rowe, and Dawson 1964:4). To obviate the confusion of geographical (regional) and chronological variables, I will try to keep them as separate as possible, following Rowe's lead in limiting the first version of the seriation to Chavin de Huantar itself. "When we say that an object from some other part of the country is decorated in the Chavin style we mean that it is substantially the same style as the. . . " 80 pages.
