The Cayapa Indians of Ecuador
A 1925 ethnographic monograph by anthropologist S. A. Barrett, published in New York by the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, documenting the Cayapa people of Ecuador for a scholarly readership. The four photographs are rotated sideways on the page and show riverside forest, a thatched dwelling with palm-frond walls and cut poles, a dense tropical bank beside water, and a raised bamboo-framed house among broadleaf plants, giving a designer raw documentary views of rainforest settlement and vernacular construction.
