Showing the wonders of the American civilisations from prehistoric times up until the seventeenth century, you can take a look at their sculptural and architectural masterpieces which are just as mysterious as they are spectacular.
The great number of civilisations that developed on the American continents before the arrival of Europeans depends on the vast extension of the territory. The purpose of this book is certainly not to mention all of them, nor to provide an overview of the great variety of styles, materials and techniques employed in the arts of the different areas, from prehistory to the sixteenth century, by presenting some of the most significant works that were produced.
