The scope and depth of the scholarship is the great strength of this book . . . Space-Time Perspectives on Early Colonial Moquegua will be a landmark and enduring contribution to the archaeology and ethnohistory of the colonial Andes. Steve Wernke, Vanderbilt University "Space-Time Perspective in Early Colonial Moquegua is a once-in-a-lifetime sort of regional study, the kind of product most archaeologists spend a career working towards. Congratulations are due to the author for this sweeping scholarship...any scholar with an interest in the colonization and "re-spacialization" of landscapes will find her discussion of these processes as examined through a detailed case study of importance...for the specialist looking for both raw data and a stimulating and theoretically informed analysis of the impact of colonization on landscape, Space-Time Perspectives on Early Colonial Moquegua is a must read." -Eliabeth Terese Newman, Historical Archaeology Rices experience and control of the evidentiary sources lend clarity to Space-Time Perspectives on Early Colonial Moquegua, despite its broad, trans-conquest scope. Particularly given the relatively nascent state of Spanish colonial era archaeology in Peru, the breadth and depth of this work make it a must-have reference for regional specialists and key contribution to the literature on the colonization of landscape in the Spanish Americans. Steven A. Wernke, Journal of Anthropological Research "The book exemplifies the way what seems like fragmentary data can be woven into a larger, more complex story of human environmental and cultural adaptation. . . . the depth of the scholarship and the historical scope of the book are a stunning accomplishment. Ultimately, archaeologists, anthropologists, historians, and art historians will find this substantive study illuminating." Isis Review
