Opis

An excursion into American Indian culture history by a British social anthropologist. This book examines theories of the development of different Pueblo social structures, paying attention to Eggan. It concludes that the theory that all Pueblos were derived from a common base is not tenable, and that a diversity of origins is more probable.
