Summary

"The Pottery of Zuni Pueblo presents a thorough, unprecedented study of seven hundred years of the Zuni pottery tradition. Every individual type and style of pottery made at Zuni is discussed and illustrated chronologically and in detail. Many of the 1200 examples reproduced are drawn from the incomparable collections acquired at Zuni by expeditions dispatched by the Smithsonian Institution, as well as from museums across the country." "Offering a history of Zuni Pueblo, the book goes on to introduce the stylistic development of Zuni pottery and traces the refinements in themes and variations of one of the Pueblo world's richest pottery-making traditions. The authors examine the typology and chronology of historic Zuni Pueblo pottery, formulating a cohesive trajectory of style and sequence for which this scholarly team has earned justifiable acclaim."--BOOK JACKET.
