"Timely and
touching . . . I very much enjoy Adler’s first-rate narrative style.
Words flow smoothly here—making this an unusual archaeological report
indeed."
David Hurst Thomas,
American Museum of
Natural History
Several hundred years
after their ancestors first settled this high valley in the Sangre de Cristo
Mountains, the modern Picuries welcomed a small group of scholars to study the
history of their home. Beginning in 1961, this partnership between the Picuris
people and a research team led by archaeologist Dr. Herbert Dick has shed light
on eight centuries of tradition and culture change at Picuris. This volume
details the history, social organization, native craft traditions, architecture,
and other facets of this unique Native American community in northern New
Mexico.
Michael A. Adler is Associate Professor of Anthropology at Southern
Methodist University and director of SMU-in-Taos located in Fort Burgwin, New
Mexico.
