Pages are clean with no markings noticed. Some wear and foxing on cover, corners and edges. Please see all photos. Thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans in the Western Hemisphere, the Native peoples of the Americas had developed a range of technologies that helped them adapt to the staggeringly diverse number of environments and ecosystems in which they lived. Basketry recovered from dry desert caves and preserved copper at sites like that at Spiro, Oklahoma illustrates the fact that baskets very much like those made over the last 500 years have a much older history in this land. Every basketry technique known worldwide is represented in some part of North America. From the enormous diversity of American Indian peoples, speaking thousands of different languages and possessing distinct cultural traditions, inhabiting a great variety of natural settings, flowed a remarkable number of different basketry forms and techniques.
