book is the first systematic study to set the material culture of pastoral communities against an understanding of the long-term effects of herding practices. It offers original insights into understanding gender relations among the herders who establish the working relationships with their animals that enable them to produce yarns and fabrics, while also adopting a dynamic perspective on studying technical changes that have occurred in the textile production in the Andes.
Through a richly detailed examination of the practices of spinning yarn from the fleece of llamas and alpacas, this title explores the relationships that herders have maintained with their herd animals in the Andes
