Sobre este artículo
Washington, D.C.: Smithsonian Books, 2002. Book. New. Cloth. First Edition, First Printing. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Washington, D.C., Smithsonian Books, 2002. First edition, first printing. 4to. Black cloth with gilt lettering embossed on spine, aqua blue endpapers, illustrated throughout, 347 pp. The continent of Australia holds the world's largest gallery of Stone Age petroglyphs and other rock art. The ancient works depict the birth of the world, the creation of ancestral humans, and the creatures who made the landscape and gave humans their laws. They also record contact with seafaring races from the north, and later, fateful meetings with European explorers. This volume, heavily illustrated with black and white photos, diagrams, and drawings, as well as a section of color photos, is a clear examination of Aboriginal art, and offers a practical overview of how archeologists study prehistoric art. New in a new dust jacket, protected by a mylar cover..
