The Kachina and the Cross


Book Description

Arraying archaeological, historical, and anthropological evidence, Riley (anthropology, Southern Illinois U.) offers new insights into the first century of sustained contact between the Spanish and the Pueblos. He describes the failure of the Spanish mines and the refocus on missionary work by the Franciscans, the resistance of Native Americans that finally led to way in 1680, the return of the Spanish after 12 years of time-out, and their more gingerly treatment of native religion after that.
