Abstract
Living Ruins explores the ways people relate to the material remains of human behavior, providing a critical stance that contests institutionalized patrimonialization discourse of vestiges of the past in present landscapes. Nine case studies from the Maya region, the Andes, and Amazonia contextualize narratives, rituals, and practices toward different vestiges.--Provided by publisher.
