Imperial frontiers are a fascinating stage for studying the
interactions of people, institutions, and their environments. In
one of the first books to explore the Inka frontier through
archaeology, Sonia Alconini examines part of present-day Bolivia
that was once a territory at the edge of the Inka empire. Along
this frontier, one of the New World's most powerful polities came
into repeated conflict with tropical lowland groups that it could
never subject to its rule. Using extensive field research, Alconini
explores the multifaceted socioeconomic processes that transpired
in the frontier region. Her unprecedented study shows how the Inka
empire exercised control over vast expanses of land and peoples in
a territory located hundreds of miles away from the capital city of
Cusco, and how people on the frontier navigated the cultural and
environmental divide that separated the Andes and the Amazon.
