The objects illustrated and described in this volume represent the finest craftsmanship and skill of aboriginal America. Few of these artifacts can be regarded as folk art; the bulk of the collection consists of objects manufactured for the aristocrats of their day who deemed them to be of high artistic merit. Furthermore, they represent a wide range in time and space, and they reflect many and varied stylistic traditions. - Introduction.
