Lost Woodlands of Ancient Nasca

Auteur: Beresford-Jones, David (Research Associate and Fellow of the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research, University of Cambridge)
Editeur: Oxford University Press
The vanished civilization of the Nasca is famous for its enigmatic giant ritual pathways through the desert pampa of Peru. But how and why did the civilization collapse? This new and detailed archaeological study argues that deforestation of river valleys, in particular the loss of the huarango tree, may have been to blame.
