| Lost Civilizations a series of books about
cultures that have changed or evolved contradicts the title within the
text. The civilizations
aren’t lost but modified. William
W. Lace has created a book on the Anasazi that include present day Pueblo,
Zuni, and Hopi thoughts, beliefs and theories, as well as explaining
scientific theories such as the “land bridge” and migration by boat or
canoe from the South Pacific. By
explaining each of the ideas behind the theories the reader is then open
to critically think, without being told that anyone way of thinking is
right or wrong, and draw their own conclusions to how and why the cultures
changed, evolved or dispersed. Black and white photos, drawings, and diagrams help show the
ingenuity, science and overall knowledge included in the anaa’i bi zazi
way of life. Marlette
