在这本书中，作者提出了在秘鲁阿亚库乔的五个羊驼放牧社区的原始民族志研究。为了评估生物学、象征和仪式行为、生态适应和实际原因的作用，对群体动力学数据进行了计算机建模。这本书包含了迄今为止对美洲驼标记仪式最详细的研究。这种仪式在防止畜群灭绝方面的作用是根据人类学和社会生物学理论来评估的。这是一本跨学科的书，将吸引专业考古学家，史前学家，文化人类学家，安第斯山脉学家，理论生物学家，进化生物学家，动物学家对动物驯化感兴趣。
In this volume, the authors present an original ethnographic study of five llama herding communities in Ayacucho, Peru. Data on herd dynamics are subjected to computer modeling in an effort to evaluate the roles of biology, symbolic and ritual behavior, ecological adaptation, and practical reason. The book contains the most detailed study of the waytakuy llama marking ceremony yet available. The role of this ceremony in preventing herds from going to extinction is evaluated against anthropological and sociobiological theory. This is an interdisciplinary book will appeal to professional archaeologists, prehistorians, cultural anthropologists, Andeanists, theoretical biologists, evolutionary biologists, and zoologists interested in animal domestication.
