While the pictures were made primarily to illustrate symbols and symbolic paraphernalia used in the personation of the gods (katcinas), they also show the ability of the Hopis in painting, a form of artistic expression which is very ancient to them. Much additional information regarding the gods represented and ceremonies associated with them is included. Reprint of the Smithsonian Institution Bureau of American Ethnology Annual Report 1903.
