Description
This book documents traditional, indigenous hats and headdresses in Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru that will be extinct in a few decades, for the aggressiveness of the modern world and the inclination of the indigenous people to embrace foreign cultural elements are precipitating deep sartorial changes. Although the headgears that the Andean natives wear today are not the same as they were during the colonial times, changes to this cultural feature have ramifications on traditional practices that have lasted for over five centuries now. Using ethno-historic documentation and ethnographic data, this work provides factual information on the symbolism of indigenous hats and headdresses from the pre-Inca to Inca ways of regional differentiation to the imposition of the European dress to contemporary ethnic, regional meanings of headdresses. Edmundo Morales travelled in numerous communities in his native Andes to capture in words and pictures the traditional culture focusing on indigenous headpieces. This informative book will put the reader and the Andean natives in an intimate contact, however momentary. It will be useful for social scientists, humanists, and travelers as well as for general readers interested in traditional cultures.
