Reviews
"The sixteenth-century Spanish priest Cristóbal de Albornoz noted that over half of the sacred things in the Inka capital of Cuzco were rocks. In her stimulating new book Carolyn Dean explores this 'culture of stone,' exploring ways in which rock outcrops and other rock forms were the focus of ritual practice and spiritual belief. This insightful and thought-provoking study reframes the way we consider the Inka visual world, illuminating key aspects of pre-Hispanic understandings of landscape and the built environment." Joanne Pillsbury, Director of Pre-Columbian Studies, Dumbarton Oaks "By addressing both well-known and understudied objects, Carolyn Dean offers sophisticated new insights into Inka practices. Moreover, while advancing scholarship on the colonial Andes, she tackles issues relating to the interpretation of non-Western art and its reception, contributing to debates on material objects and the built environment in a wide range of fields." Dana Leibsohn, Art Department, Smith College "Gold, silver, and weaving are the riches most often associated with the Inka, but as Carolyn Dean's scholarly study demonstrates, their greatest investment of thought and time was in stone. Moving between descriptions of the magnificent walls of Inka imperial buildings and worked stones in situ, Dean links them as related parts of Inka visual expression that is hard to comprehend and not easily recognized. But, as Dean stresses, there is an intimate relationship between Andeans and stone that is at the heart of the greatest empire of Ancient America."--Thomas B. F. Cummins, Harvard University, "Art historian Dean has provided perhaps the best interpretation of how the Inkas saw their environment, particularly their lithic one, and how this motivated their actions. . . . Her judicious use of historical documents, combined with thoughtful and critical analysis of contemporary Andean concepts that appear rooted in their pre-Hispanic ancestry, provides a new and refreshing perspective for understanding the Inkas' culture of stone." - Michael Malpass, Comparative Studies in Society and History, "By addressing both well-known and understudied objects, Carolyn Dean offers sophisticated new insights into Inka practices. Moreover, while advancing scholarship on the colonial Andes, she tackles issues relating to the interpretation of non-Western art and its reception, contributing to debates on material objects and the built environment in a wide range of fields."-Dana Leibsohn, Smith College, “Gold, silver, and weaving are the riches most often associated with the Inka, but as Carolyn Dean’s scholarly study demonstrates, their greatest investment of thought and time was in stone.

But, as Dean stresses, there is an intimate relationship between Andeans and stone that is at the heart of the greatest empire of Ancient America.â€�- Thomas B. F. Cummins , Harvard University, "In her exquisitely researched, articulate, and annotated book, Carolyn Dean explores the Inka love affair with stone and demonstrates the near-universal role played by the material in Inka cultural and spiritual life. . . . Dean has made a strong contribution to the ï¬�eld of Andean studies, one well presented and worth reading." - Vincent R. Lee, American Historical Review, "The sixteenth-century Spanish priest Cristbal de Albornoz noted that over half of the sacred things in the Inka capital of Cuzco were rocks.

As a study of ancient rocks, their material texture, location and relationship to other features in the landscape, as well as their social agency during Inka times, A Culture of Stone is a welcome intervention and will be of interest to students of material worlds, anthropologists, archaeologists, as well as scholars of Peru and Latin America." - Haidy L Geismar, Material Worlds blog, "The sixteenth-century Spanish priest Cristbal de Albornoz noted that over half of the sacred things in the Inka capital of Cuzco were rocks.

Cummins, Harvard University"Carolyn Dean, an art historian, has pieced together a very interesting book on the meaning of stone for the Inkas, based on observations she has made on 'hikes and outings' and supplemented by good use of colonial documentation.

[I]t represents an intervention into current debates about world art history. Dean suggests a way in which the interpretation of human interactions with nature that in the European tradition are called art and architecture may be imaginatively reconstructed with terms and concepts that are not Eurocentric." - Thomas DeCosta Kaufmann, CAA Reviews, "The sixteenth-century Spanish priest CristÓbal de Albornoz noted that over half of the sacred things in the Inka capital of Cuzco were rocks.
