Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tusayan Katcinas In the present article I have tried to present a picture of one of the two great natural groups Of ceremonials into which the Tusayan ritual is divided. I have sought also to lay a foundation for comparative studies of the same group as it exists in other pueblos, but have not found sufficient data in regard to these celebrations in other villages to carry this comparative research very far. Notwithstanding these dances occur in most of the pueblos, the published data about them is too meager for comparative uses. NO connected description of these ceremonies in other pueblos has been published; of theoretical expla nations we have more than are profitable. It is to be hoped that the ever-increasing interest in the ceremonials of the Pueblos Of the south west will lead to didactic, exoteric accounts of the rituals Of all these peoples, for a great field for research in this direction is yet to be tilled. In the use, throughout this article, of the words gods, deities, and worship we undoubtedly endow the subject with conceptions which do not exist in the Indian mind, but spring from philosophic ideas resulting from our higher culture. For the first two the more cumber some term supernatural beings is more expressive, and the word spirit is perhaps more convenient, except from the fact that it like wise has come to have a definite meaning unknown to the primitive mind. Worship, as we understand it, is not a proper term to use in the de scription of the Indian's methods of approaching his supernal beings. It involves much which is unknown to him, and implies the existence of that which is foreign to his conceptions. Still, until some better nomenclature, more exactly defining his methods, is suggested, these terms from their convenience will still continue in common use.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tusayan Ritual: A Study of the Influence Environment on Aboriginal Cults Nor is the unremunerative soil the only hostile environment with which this industrious race of aboriginal farmers has had to contend. Incoming marauders, in the form of nomadic enemies, have from pre historic times harassed them, preyed on their farms, and forced them to adopt inaccessible mesa tops, high above their fields, for protection. Perched on these rocky eminences they have erected seven stone vil lages in so clever a way that they seem to be a part of the cliffs. Ani mals in desert surroundings as a protective device have taken on the color of the soil, but these men have built their towns In the cliffs so deftly that they seem to be parts of the mesas themselves. They have succeeded well in this protective device, due to environment, for at a distance the pueblos are indistinguishable from the cliffs on which they stand. I need not dwell on the forbidding aspect of the mesa tops on which these villages are built. Not a Sprig of verdure, drop of water, or frag ment of fuel is to be found upon them. If there is one physical feature which may be said to characterize Tusayan, it is the paucity of water, or rather its unequal distribution in different seasons of the year.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume emphasizes the complex interactions between ceramic containers and people in past and present contexts. Pottery, once it appears in the archaeological record, is one of the most routinely recovered artifacts. It is made frequently, broken often, and comes in endless varieties according to economic and social requirements. Moreover, even in shreds ceramics can last almost forever, providing important clues about past human behavior. The contributors to this volume, all leaders in ceramic research, probe the relationship between humans and ceramics. Here they offer new discoveries obtained through traditional lines of inquiry, demonstrate methodological breakthroughs, and expose innovative new areas for research. Among the topics covered in this volume are the age at which children begin learning pottery making; the origins of pottery in the Southwest U.S., Mesoamerica, and Greece; vessel production and standardization; vessel size and food consumption patterns; the relationship between pottery style and meaning; and the role pottery and other material culture plays in communication. Pottery and People provides a cross-section of the state of the art, emphasizing the complete interactions between ceramic containers and people in past and present contexts. This is a milestone volume useful to anyone interested in the connections between pots and people.
