Presents a study of prehistoric religion in Prehispanic Southwest. Drawing on an array of empirical approaches, this book shows the importance of understanding beliefs and ritual for a range of time periods and southwestern societies. It is useful for professional and avocational archaeologists, and for religion scholars and students.
Religion mattered to the prehistoric Southwestern people, just as it matters to their descendents today. Examining the role of religion can help to explain architecture, pottery, agriculture, even commerce. But archaeologists have only recently developed the theoretical and methodological tools with which to study this topic. Religion in the Prehispanic Southwest marks the first book-length study of prehistoric religion in the region. Drawing on a rich array of empirical approaches, the contributors show the importance of understanding beliefs and ritual for a range of time periods and southwestern societies. For professional and avocational archaeologists, for religion scholars and students, Religion in the Prehispanic Southwest represents an important contribution.
