From figures on sculpture at Chavín de Huántar holding strombus and spondylus shells to shells found in highland burials in Mesoamerica located far from the sea, its importance is self-evident. The seven papers collected in \u003ci\u003eThe Sea in the Pre-Columbian World\u003c\/i\u003e range from art history to zoology, and each demonstrates how the sea acted as one of the most important forces in the lives of the people of Pre-Columbian America.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elizabeth P.
