Sex life in ancient Peru

Erotica, virginity, marriage, motherhood, prostitution, homosexuality, The life of the Virgins of the Sun, as well as incest and polygamy, played an important role in the ancient Indian cultures of what is now Peru. The same goes for erotic ceramics. However, the indigenous people of this country understood sexuality in a completely different way, and therefore Christian Europe considered them sexually perverted and immoral.

This book is unique in that its author openly discusses a topic that was and to some extent still is taboo, and in that it presents objects from collections that are not commonly exhibited. Above all, however, based on a detailed analysis of many sources, it gives a completely new insight into the background of ancient customs and traditions, and the reason for the creation of the creations that caused such outrage.
