Superstitions Of Grayson County, Elza Fentress
Superstitions Of Grayson County, Elza Fentress
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
For this collection of odd beliefs to serve as an amusement to the curious is not the purpose of this treatment of superstitions. The end sought is not humor or satire. It is not the intention of the author to cast a reflection in any form upon persons who are inclined to be superstitious. A belief in superstitions is by far more widespread than most people would suspect. Is it not true that superstitions swayed the minds of people in earlier centuries? Are we not descendants of these people? We hear many of their songs; their laws were the forerunners …

Personal Adornment Of The Ancient Pueblo Indians, Winifred Stamm Reiter
Anthropology ETDs
When man first struck stone with other stone in conscious effort to change its shape, he first gave expression to the creative impulse that was instinct within him. During the ages that followed he, forced by necessity, directed that impulse into purely utilitarian channels. His need were food and shelter and he was so preoccupied with obtaining them and with devising objects which would help in their attainment that he had no time or need for anything else…

The Ethnobotany Of The Isleta Indians, Volney H. Jones
The Ethnobotany Of The Isleta Indians, Volney H. Jones
Anthropology ETDs
This study is an outgrowth of the increasing interest in the history, ethnology, and archaeology of the Pueblo Indians of the Southwest. Although much research has been done in this very fertile field, new and fascinating problems are constantly presenting themselves.
When one states that the environment greatly influences a people he speaks truisms and common knowledge. The arid Southwest with its distinctive flora offers an unusual environment to which the Indian had adapted himself remarkably well. The object in general of this problem has been to study the reciprocal relation between the Isleta Indian and his plant environment; specifically, …

The Ethnobotany Of Jemez Indians, Sarah Louise Cook
The Ethnobotany Of Jemez Indians, Sarah Louise Cook
Anthropology ETDs
The Indians in New Mexico may be divided into two general types — wandering and pueblo. The Athapascan, or wandering Indians, constitute a group which has drifted from the far north into New Mexico, They are more or less nomadic and war-like, and not agriculturally inclined, therefore to a large extent dependent upon their neighbors. The remaining Indians in New Mexico are the pueblos. These groups are independent, peaceful, and industrious, particularly along their respective lines of weaving, basketry, pottery, and agriculture.

Notes From The Documentary History, The Language, And The Rituals And Customs Of Jemez Pueblo, Blanche Wurdeck Harper
Notes From The Documentary History, The Language, And The Rituals And Customs Of Jemez Pueblo, Blanche Wurdeck Harper
Anthropology ETDs
The documentary history of the pueblo of Jemez begins with the Coronado expedition of 1954, the events of which were chronicled by Pedro de Castaneda. This first visit of the Spanish to Jemez was under the command of Captain Francisco Barrionuevo, and took place in the fall of the year. Barrionuevo was sent northward up the Jemez Valley for the purpose of exploring the Jemez province, which was already so named. Castaneda, who accompanied Barrionuevo, says that there were seven towns in the Jemez province, and three others in the province of Aguas Callentes. The latter province, according to Simpson, …

A Plan For An Archaeological Survey Of The Pueblo Plateau, Reginald G. Fisher
Anthropology ETDs
In referring to that area in the southwestern part of the United States and the northern part of Mexico over which is spread the remains of a once prolific and virile civilization, that of the Pueblo Indian, many names have been used. Some of these are very indefinite, and of little descriptive value, when one looks into the exact meaning of them. To those who know what was meant to be conveyed by these names, they no doubt are sufficient, but one ignorant of these denotations would probably be lead into misunderstandings. Such names as "The Great American Desert", the …
