The designs from these books were once used by ancient cultures and civilisations to decorate their canoes, houses, pottery, clothes and also their bodies.
Most images have never been published before. The designs are mostly geometric depictions of animals, flowers, objects and deities and reflect the vitality of the people that once used them, their culture and beliefs.
Each book includes a brief anthropological introduction and an extensive index in five languages: Spanish, English, German, French and Italian.
