  GEOGRAPHY 
  

  

  This 
  brief 
  review 
  of 
  the 
  general 
  geography 
  of 
  Perti 
  and 
  Bolivia 
  is 
  

   intended 
  to 
  relate 
  certain 
  geographic 
  features 
  and 
  divisions 
  to 
  the 
  

   archeological 
  past. 
  Since 
  there 
  are 
  no 
  indications 
  of 
  important 
  cli- 
  

   matic 
  changes 
  during 
  the 
  time 
  period 
  considered, 
  the 
  environmental 
  

   characteristics 
  of 
  contemporary 
  Perti 
  and 
  Bolivia 
  are 
  also 
  applicable 
  

   to 
  the 
  archeological 
  past. 
  The 
  excellent 
  preservation 
  of 
  delicate 
  

   textiles 
  in 
  the 
  dry 
  sand 
  graves, 
  and 
  the 
  remarkable 
  condition 
  of 
  many 
  

   early 
  adobe 
  buildings, 
  testify 
  that 
  the 
  Coastal 
  desert 
  conditions 
  have 
  

   long 
  prevailed. 
  

  

  Geographically, 
  Perti 
  is 
  commonly 
  described 
  in 
  terms 
  of 
  three 
  

   vertical 
  strips: 
  the 
  desert 
  Coast, 
  the 
  high 
  Andes, 
  and 
  the 
  Montana 
  or 
  

   eastern 
  slope 
  of 
  the 
  Andes, 
  which 
  merges 
  into 
  the 
  Amazon 
  jungle. 
  An 
  

   analysis 
  of 
  the 
  archeological 
  materials 
  shows 
  that 
  these 
  three 
  strips 
  

   did 
  not 
  always 
  produce 
  the 
  sharp 
  cultural 
  divisions 
  that 
  the 
  contrast- 
  

   ing 
  environments 
  would 
  suggest. 
  On 
  the 
  other 
  hand, 
  such 
  environ- 
  

   mental 
  factors 
  are 
  always 
  of 
  importance 
  in 
  the 
  over-all 
  interpretation. 
  

   The 
  most 
  extensive 
  archeological 
  work 
  has 
  been 
  carried 
  out 
  on 
  the 
  

   Coast 
  and 
  in 
  the 
  Andes, 
  and 
  consequently 
  the 
  history 
  of 
  these 
  two 
  

   strips 
  is 
  reasonably 
  well 
  known. 
  The 
  Montana 
  region 
  has 
  received 
  so
