Lecture 4 Andean Art Part 2: Wari to Inca & Colombian Archaeology
ARTH309G Latin American Art & Architecture

In Part 2 we discuss the Middle Horizon cultures of Wari and Tiwanaku and marvel at the precision of Tiwanaku masonry which has NOTHING to do with aliens. Then we talk about Late Horizon cultures like the Chimu with their FABULOUS headdresses and we wrap up the Andes with the Inca. Along the way we talk about how Legos might give you skills in reconstructing ancient buildings (no seriously) and somehow I manage not to make a single reference to Emperor's New Groove. Finally we survey a bit of Colombian Archaeology and talk about new discoveries in the Amazon and hot what we don't know is vastly bigger than what we do know.
