During the first millennium BC, South America witnessed the rise of its earliest complex society in the mountainous region of Chavin de Huántar. The Chavin style profoundly influenced Peruvian art and architecture for centuries, shaping all subsequent developments. In his comprehensive and current examination of Chavin, Professor Burger highlights the early Andean civilization's uniqueness and the distinct factors that contributed to its growth. He contends that Chavin civilization emerged as a blend of pre-existing traditions, transformed by the effects of extensive trade and the emergence of a new religious ideology.
