Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Ferguson's classic photographic portrayal of the major pre-Columbian ruins of Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, and Honduras is now available from UNM Press in a completely revised edition. Magnificent aerial and ground photographs give both armchair and actual visitors unparalleled views of fifty-one ancient cities. The restored areas of each site and their interesting and exotic features are shown within each group of ruins. The authors have thoroughly revised the text for this new edition, and they have added over 30 new photographs and illustrations as well as a completely new chapter by Richard E. W. Adams on regional states and empires in ancient Mesoamerica. Over a span of three thousand years between 1500 B.C. and A.D. 1500 great civilizations, including the Olmec, Teotihuacan, Maya, Toltec, Zapotec, and Aztec, flourished, waned, and died in Mesoamerica. These indigenous cultures of Mexico and Central America are brought to life in Mesoamerica's Ancient Cities through stunning color photographs. The authors include the most recent research and most widely accepted theoretical perspectives on Mesoamerican civilizations. Ideal for the general reader as well as scholars of Mesoamerica, this volume makes a significant contribution to our knowledge of the Americas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eighteen children from 18 American cultures prior to the arrival of Christopher Columbus, explain why their city is the most beautiful in the world, and in doing so, make us a painting of their beliefs, food, costumes, celebrations, jobs, giving us a general and synthetic description. The cultures and cities are, from north to south: - The Inuit scattered-city of igloos on a non-existent land, - The Sioux transportable nomadic cities, - The Anasazi Dovecote excavated in the Mountain in Mesa Verde, - The Aztecs Tenochtitlán a city dedicated to the gods, - The Teotihuacán city where men became gods, - The Mayans Copán a city like a book, - The Zenúes Yapel and its web of canals, - The Shell Rings of extreme geometry and antiquity, - The Panches city on the peak of the mountain, - The Muiscas Bacatá, the resplendent city, the origin of Eldorado, - The Amazonians Maloca and the entire universe within it, - The Chimúes Chan Chan, the metropolis of sand, - The Incas Machu Picchu to tie the sun, - The Nazca city painted on the pampas, - The Uros floating city on Titicaca, - The Paleo-indians Rocky Shelters, - And the Europeans that imagine Eldorado. After knowing the pre-Columbian cities, the European ones seem like a pile of buildings at a crossroads. The pre-Columbian cities allow knowing each culture that dreamed of them before building them. These 18 cities are not 18 conglomerates of buildings, they are conglomerates of second natures dreamed of and built by men, the city as a correction of Nature, as an additional furnishing to Eden.
