X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>High in the Bolivian Andes\, on the shores
  of Lake Titicaca\, lies Tiwanaku &mdash\; often called the Stonehenge of 
 the Americas. Around the end of the fourth century AD\, this remarkable se
 ttlement underwent a dramatic transformation\, becoming the first city in 
 the highlands of Andean South America. What triggered this sudden explosio
 n of political power\, economic innovation and artistic creativity?<br />D
 rawing on 25 years of archaeological research\, this talk explores discove
 ries that are reshaping our understanding of Tiwanaku's origins\, the envi
 ronmental and social forces behind its rise and the factors that ultimatel
 y led to its decline.<br /><br /><a href="https://experts.mcmaster.ca/peop
 le/roddick">Dr. Andrew Roddick</a> is an anthropological archaeologist who
 se research currently includes the Late Formative (200 BC-600 AD) and Midd
 le Horizon (600-1000 AD) in the South-Central Andes of South America and t
 he Late Woodland period (ca. 900-1650 CE.) and Neutral/Attawandaron (17th
