Although the main emphasis in the source is on hunting, there are abundant data scattered throughout the source dealing with other aspects of Hopi ethnography, such as the capture and keeping of eagles in the villages, and comparative information on similar hunting practices among other Pueblo peoples and tribal groups in the Southwest.
