Pueblo Indian Pottery - Types History Development / In-Depth Illustrated Book

Description: GENERATIONS IN CLAY – PUEBLO POTTERY OF THE AMERICAN SOUTHWEST by Alfred E. Dittert, Jr. and Fred Plog. Northland Press, Flagstaff, 1991.Pueblo artists have attained an excellence in form and design comparable to that seen in pottery made throughout the world, even though they worked without the aid of such mechanical devices as the potter’s wheel or the mold. Yet for too long, their work has been relatively unknown except by a few anthropologists, art historians, and private collectors. Lavishly illustrated in color and black and white, this out-of-print book is a pictorial history of this early American Pueblo Indian pottery. With over 150 well-defined color and black-and-white photographs and a clear and concise text, this early book reviews the history and identification of Pueblo pottery. Covered by chapter are: The Southwest and the Pueblo Area (Map 1 – The Geography of the Southwest; Map 2 – Archaeological Cultures of the Southwest; Map 3 – Present-day Tribal Locations of the Southwest; Map 4 – Present-Day Pueblos of the Southwest); The Study of Pueblo Pottery; Pueblo Pottery: The Modern Period; Pueblo Pottery: The Prehistoric Period; Pueblo Pottery: The Protohistoric and Historic Periods; Generation in Clay: Conclusion; Appendix; Notes; Glossary; and Selected Bibliography. This scholarly text would benefit both the novice and advanced collector, dealer, or historian of Native American Indian arts and crafts. 9.5” x 9” softback in very good condition. 149 pages.
