Description

This report by anthropologist Jesse Fewkes details his findings of various designs and symbols on prehistoric Hopi pottery that he studied in the early 20th-century. A chronology of symbols is detailed in the introduction before Fewkes delves into the many types of figures — including human, reptilian, winged, insectile and celestial — found in his exploration. Naturally, more than 100 illustrations accompany the text.
