- W4229675558 abstract "STUDYING in Mr. Squier's new work the records and ruins which attest the civilisation of Peru before the Spanish Conquest, one finds oneself repeating the often-asked question, Did these advanced arts and institutions arise out of native savagery, or were they at least developed under the guidance of ideas imported from the Old World? Mr. Squier holds that they were indigenous, and his opinion (which is that also of Mr. Markham) must have great weight, not only from the minute care with which he has examined the ruins during his two years' exploration, but from his familiarity with the Spanish literature on the subject. Some readers, however, like the present reviewer, while admitting that much of the Peruvian culture has such a stamp of peculiarity that it must be home-made, may not feel quite so certain of the whole being absolutely free from foreign influence. It is much to affirm of a bronze age people like the Peruvians (for particulars and drawings of their somewhat special types of bronze implements, see pp. 175, 579) that they invented this alloy independently. For an excellent case of mingled native originality and similarity to Old World types, attention may be called to the stone-circles of Sillustani, as exemplified by Fig. I, reproduced from Mr. Squier (p. 384). He calls them “sun-circles,” which, however, is begging the question of their as yet unproved purpose. At any rate there they stand, circles of erect unhewn stones like the cromlechs of Europe and Asia, but with a special feature in the surrounding pavement or “platform” of well-fitted hewn stones, with a gutter running all round the circle near the inner edge." @default.
