Описание:
In 1981, James F. Cherry embarked on what evolved into a passionate, personal quest to identify and document all the known headpots of MississippianIndian culture from northeast Arkansas and the bootheel region of southeast Missouri. Produced by two groups the Spanish called the Casqui and Pacaha and dating circa AD 1400?1700, headpots occur, with few exceptions, only in a small region of Arkansas and Missouri. Relatively little is known about these headpots: did they portray kinsmen or enemies, the living or the dead or were they used in ceremonies, in everyday life, or exclusivelyfor the sepulcher?Cherry?s decades of research have culminated in the lavishly illustratedThe Headpots of Northeast Arkansas and Southern Pemiscot County, Missouri, a fascinating, comprehensive catalog of 138 identified classical style headpotsand an invaluable resource for understanding the meaning of these remarkable ceramic vessels.Похожие книги
