Excerpt from Handbook of South American Indians, Vol. 7: Index With the publication of the index volume, the Handbook of South American Indians is complete. This detailed subject index includes tribal names and variants (in italic); the titles of papers listed under subjects, key words, and authors; and entries on animals and plants, geographical names, linguistics, ethnology, archeology, historical events and personages, and missions and religious orders. Information on climatic conditions is often given in geographical sections of the papers. From the beginning it was realized that an index would be necessary to make easily available the vast amount of detailed material contained in the Handbook. The rather long delay in its appearance has been due to the fact that extra funds were not available after the publication of the scientific portion Of the text, and the costs had to be met from the regular printing allotments of the Bureau of American Ethnology.

Perhaps the contributions of South American archaeology to the larger field of world archaeology have been inadequately recognized. If so, this is probably because there have been relatively few archaeologists working in South America outside of Peru and recent advances in knowledge in other parts of the continent are only beginning to enter larger archaeological discourse. Many ideas of and about South American archaeology held by scholars from outside the area are going to change irrevocably with the appearance of the present volume. Not only does the Handbook of South American Archaeology (HSAA) provide immense and broad information about ancient South America, the volume also showcases the contributions made by South Americans to social theory. Moreover, one of the merits of this volume is that about half the authors (30) are South Americans, and the bibliographies in their chapters will be especially useful guides to Spanish and Portuguese literature as well as to the latest research. It is inevitable that the HSAA will be compared with the multi-volume Handbook of South American Indians (HSAI), with its detailed descriptions of indigenous peoples of South America, that was organized and edited by Julian Steward. Although there are heroic archaeological essays in the HSAI, by the likes of Junius Bird, Gordon Willey, John Rowe, and John Murra, Steward states frankly in his introduction to Volume Two that “arch- ology is included by way of background” to the ethnographic chapters.
