Zuñi breadstuff

Cushing, Frank Hamilton, 1857-1900 · 1920 · New York : Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation · 18 pictures

Zuñi breadstuff is a 1920 ethnographic monograph by Frank Hamilton Cushing, published in New York by the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, on the grain foods and cooking of the Zuni people. The pictures are pen-and-ink and wood-engraved scenes of stone pueblo architecture, women grinding grain, and cooking hearths, with a photographic plate of cultivated fields; a designer might draw on their hatched line work, stepped adobe forms, and earthy tonal range.
