This is an excellent book on the subject of primitive art. The author is exhaustingly thorough in all areas pertinent to the study of the origins and diffusion of early art throughout the ancient European and Asian world. Of particular interest is the research into the origins of shamanism and how it played a major role in the art of the time, and the magic-rites associated with it. The book is well illustrated with many maps to compliment the area of study being discussed, as well as many, many interesting photographs of textiles, pottery, and ancient sculpture and painting. A very comprehensive and informative book on the topic of prehistoric art throughout the world. I thoroughly enjoyed this title and am inclined to purchase more in the series.This book is part of a large collection from the estate of an avid collector. This book has been carefully stored.
