Description: Anthropologist Hiroyasu Tomoeda documented with his photographs the rich pre-Hispanic patrimony of Peru, producing more than 46 thousand images of diverse Andean archaeological sites, a collection presently in custody of the Nanzan University in Nagoya, Japan. The present volume reproduces 125 color photographs of the late professional, which, although the recipient of a medal in 2009 bestowed by the Peruvian Congress for his contribution to the knowledge of the Peruvian culture, he is almost unknown in Peru. The book contains an an introductory text by anthropologist Luis Million, with whom Tomoeda toured part of the Andean territory and writings by other professionals who knew him. It presents documentary photographs of the Temple of Wiracocha (Raqchi), Cusco and the Tiwanaku Monumental complex as well as the Basilica of our Lady of Copacabana in Bolivia, among other impressive sites.
