AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This source includes seven brief papers, relating almost wholly to the pueblo of Oraibi. They are: Notes on Modern Burial Customs; Notes on the Eagle Cult of the Hopi; The Oraibi New Year Ceremony; Tawa Baholawu of the Oraibi Flute Societies; Four Hopi Tales; and Hopi Marriage Rites on the Wedding Morning. The observations are extremely detailed, even though brief, and generally refer to the period 1900-1905. Very little data on pueblos other than Oraibi are included.
