Prehistoric Architecture in Micronesia

Booknews

In pre-contact times a richly diverse and innovative architectural tradition reached maturity in the western Pacific. Here is a modern study of this remarkable work, revealing that there is no such thing as primitive architecture but only primitive means. It presents five distinctly different examples of Micronesia's ancient architecture. Fine architectural renderings, good color and (adequate) b&w photos. Scholarly and accessible. Annotation c.
