"Le XXIe sera-t-il le siècle de la fin des ruines ? Redécouverts pour la plupart au XXe siècle, bon nombre de sites qui constituent le patrimoine mondial sont menacés d'une destruction pure et simple. Or il ne peut y avoir de sociétés sans ruines, et la conservation des monuments les plus remarquables parvenus jusqu'à nous est aujourd'hui une urgence. D'autant que les menaces sont nombreuses et diverses : destructions volontaires, pillage, pression de l'urbanisation, tourisme de masse, restaurations abusives, négligence et pollution ou conséquences des changements climatiques. Afin de comprendre l'immense intérêt de ces sites exceptionnels, mais aussi leur fragilité, tout en racontant leurs histoires multiséculaires, Peter Eeckhout nous entraîne, par le texte et par l'image, à la découverte d'Angkor et de Méroé, de Pachacamac, d'Alep et de Palmyre, d'Haïti, de Délos, de Carthage, et de bien d'autres merveilles encore."

"This edited volume focuses on the funerary archaeology of the Pan-Andean area in the pre-Hispanic period. The contributors examine the treatment of the dead and provide an understanding of how these ancient groups coped with mortality, as well as the ways in which they strove to overcome the effects of death. The contributors also present previously unpublished discoveries and employ a range of academic and analytical approaches that have rarely--if ever--been utilised in South America before. The book covers the Formative Period to the end of the Inca Empire, and the chapters together comprise a state-of-the-art summary of all the best research on Andean funerary archaeology currently being carried out around the globe"--
