{"product_id":"the-katcina-altars-in-hopi-worship-9781430461968","title":"The Katcina Altars In Hopi Worship","description":"The Katcina Altars in Hopi Worship is a book written by J. Walter Fewkes, an American anthropologist who studied the Hopi people of Arizona in the early 20th century. The book describes the role of the katcina altars in Hopi religious ceremonies, which are central to their worship of the natural world and their ancestors. The katcina altars are elaborate constructions made of sand, cornmeal, and other materials, which are used to represent the spirits of the katcinas, or supernatural beings, that are believed to inhabit the world around them. Fewkes provides a detailed analysis of the symbolism and meaning of the katcina altars, as well as the rituals and traditions associated with their use. The book also includes numerous illustrations and photographs of katcina altars and other Hopi religious artifacts, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Hopi people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
