DESCRIPCIÓN
English Title: Goldwork and Shamanism
There are books that open closed doors of history for us. In this spectacular work, Gerardo Reichel-Dolmatoff, the Austrian anthropologist who thoroughly investigated the pre-Hispanic goldsmithing of the territory now occupied by Colombia, deciphers for the first time the meaning that the gold of the past kept hidden for many centuries, that sacred and essential element of the pre-Columbian world. It is therefore about knowing the fascinating history left written by the skillful hands of the aboriginal goldsmiths who created and cast the pieces destined for the ritual of their societies. Illustrated with splendid photographs of the pieces of the Gold Museum, taken by Rudolf Schrimpff, this book is a delightful encounter with our remote history.
