From the DJ: a uniquely conceived investigation of the way primitive societies shape their environments. Considering architecture as including not only buildings but also every kind of physical alteration of the landscape, the author investigates the structure, purpose, and interpretation of campsites, architectural sculpture, ritual itineraries of nomadic peoples, sacred centers, and territory and village layouts.
