What reading level is South American Archaeology An Introduction to the Archaeology of the South Ame book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At Chancay and Ancon, pottery of a style related to that of Nasca also occurs, but in these localities remains of an even earlier date are found. These are the relics of a primi- tive fishing population, who did not possess metal, but used implements of bone, and, though very unskilled in weaving, manufactured basket-work of good quality. Their pottery is not painted, but engraved. These re- mains are found in shell-heaps, similar to those which, as will be seen in a later chapter, fringe the C...hilean coast, some being at a considerable distance from the sea. This primitive population came in contact with the makers of the fine painted ware, and in many of the graves pottery of the Nasca type is common, showing that they plundered the graves of the settlers from Nasca, and used their pots, besides, towards the end of their period, copying the Nasca designs. At Chancay the Tiahuanaco style follows next, and it is possible to trace the development of the red-white-black from it ; and again the evolution of the black and white type, so characteristic of this neighbourhood, by the omis- sion of the red pigment.
