Book Description
Excerpt from Indians of the Southwest Since that visit, in 1899, I have paid other visits to the South west, but the fulfilment of the promise made at that time has been delayed from season to season. In August, 1901, on the occasion of the weird snake ceremonies, it was my good fortune again to visit the Hopi, this time in company with Mr. Higgins' successor, and with him the subject was renewed and the prom ise reiterated, with this paper on The Indians of the Southwest as the result. If we may better understand civilized man of to-day by a knowledge of man in more primitive conditions, then surely the Southwest forms a field, not only to scientific students but to all who have abroad interest in mankind, second to that presented by no other region in the world.
