Ceremonial Bundles of the Blackfoot Indians is a book written by Clark Wissler and published in 1912. The book is a comprehensive study of the ceremonial bundles used by the Blackfoot Indians, a Native American tribe that inhabited the Great Plains region of North America. Wissler, an anthropologist and ethnographer, provides a detailed description of the Blackfoot ceremonial bundles, which were used in a variety of religious and social contexts. He explains the significance of the bundles in Blackfoot culture and the rituals associated with their use. The book includes detailed illustrations and photographs of the bundles, as well as descriptions of their contents and the materials used to make them. Wissler also provides a historical and cultural context for the bundles, discussing the changes that occurred in Blackfoot society as a result of contact with Europeans and the impact of these changes on the use of the bundles. Overall, Ceremonial Bundles of the Blackfoot Indians is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of Native American tribes, particularly the Blackfoot Indians. It provides a detailed and insightful look at the role of ceremonial bundles in Blackfoot society and the significance of these objects in religious and cultural practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
