	0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)

Publication	Great Britain, Southwater, 2008.
Description	128pBlack Spine
Summary/Abstract	This book focuses on myths, legends and religious beliefs as old as time. The Chavin, Moche and Chimu people worshipped rainforest gods in the form of jaguars, serpents, monkeys and birds. The Incas even claimed descent from the sun, regarding their emperor as the 'son of the sun'. Rituals developed, including human and animal sacrifice, and honouring the gods lay at the heart of everyday lives. Even today, South American people honour Inti, the Inca sun god.This is a brilliant retelling of the prehistory and history of South America through the myths and legends of its many cultures and civilizations.
