About This Item
Flagstaff, AZ: Northland Press, 1977. First Edition, 5th Printing . Soft cover. Near Fine/None as Issued. Peter Bloomer (Photographer). Text/BRAND NEW & Bright. Soft cover/NF w/trace edge & surface rubs. The Hopi, and some other American Indians, embraced dualism in thought; the physical and visable world is augmented by a spiritual counterpart. Kachina, in it most restricted sense, refers to ancestral spirits. Kachina dolls, traditionally fashioned from roots of the water-seeking cottonwood tree, are symbols of this belief. Excellent guide and reference/resource to a highly stylized form of religious art.
