~ PREFACE. 
(Second Edition.) 
During the eight years which have intervened 
between these editions noteworthy progress has been 
made. In the archaeological field the restoration of 
the ruins of the Mesa Verde region has been continued 
by Dr. Fewkes with the support of the Federal Govern- 
ment. Andover Academy has provided for a thorough 
examination of the Pecos ruin under the leadership of 
Dr. A. V. Kidder. Hawikuh, the Zuni village where 
Coronado first encountered the pueblo people, has been 
explored by Mr. Hodge for the Museum of the American 
Indian. The American Museum has continued the 
survey of the ruins of the Southwest begun by Mr. N. C. — 
Nelson and has cleared out many of the rooms and re- 
inforced the walls of the great ruin near Aztec. The 
work at Aztec has been under the immediate direction 
of Earl H. Morris. In the ethnological field the most 
noteworthy work is that of Drs. Kroeber and Parsons 
at Zuni, Dr. Lowie among the Hopi, Dr. Spier with the 
Havasupai, and Drs. Parsons and Boas at Laguna. 
Epoch-making publications are those of Dr. Kidder 
on Pajarito pottery, Mr. Nelson on the Galisteo ruins, 
Dr. Spier on the Little Colorado, Father Dumarest 
on Cochiti, Drs. Kroeber and Parsons on Zufi, and Dr. 
Haeberlin on Southwestern religion.
