      Focusing on the interplay between architecture and society, this volume examines public architecture in the pre-Hispanic Andes through a cultural, political, and religious lens. It introduces innovative analytical methods to explore three key themes: monumental architecture, ritual spaces, and social control structures. By providing a new methodology for studying public architecture, the book illustrates its significance in rituals, ideology, and power dynamics within ancient Andean society, supported by clear, richly illustrated discussions.
