Description

How did Southwestern peoples make a living in the vast arid reaches of the Great Basin?

When and why did violence erupt in the Mesa Verde region?

Who were the Fremont people? How do some Hopis view Chaco Canyon? These are a few of the topics addressed in Living the Ancient Southwest.

In this highly-illustrated anthology, general readers will discover essays by eighteen anthropologist-writers.

They speak about the beauty and originality of Mimbres pottery, the rock paintings in Canyon de Chelly, the history of the Wupatki Navajos, O’odham songs describing ancient trails to the Pacific Coast, and other topics relating to the deep indigenous history and culture of the American Southwest.
