'Basketry of the Papago and Pima' offers a detailed exploration of the traditional basket-weaving techniques and cultural significance of the Papago (Tohono O’odham) and Pima (Akimel O’odham) tribes of the American Southwest. Mary Lois Kissell meticulously documents the materials, methods, and designs employed by these skilled artisans, providing valuable insights into their daily lives and artistic expression. Originally published in 1916, this study remains an important resource for understanding the rich heritage of Native American craftsmanship.
