Description
Traditions of the Arikara is a book written by George A. Dorsey that explores the culture and traditions of the Arikara people, a Native American tribe that once inhabited the Great Plains region of North America. The book is based on Dorsey's fieldwork and research conducted during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when he spent a significant amount of time living among the Arikara and learning about their way of life. The book is divided into several sections, each of which covers a different aspect of Arikara culture. These sections include topics such as the tribe's history, religion, social structure, and daily life. Throughout the book, Dorsey provides detailed descriptions of Arikara customs, rituals, and beliefs, drawing on both his own observations and the stories and legends passed down through generations of Arikara people. One of the key themes of the book is the importance of storytelling in Arikara culture. Dorsey includes many examples of Arikara myths and legends, which he collected from tribal elders and other community members. These stories provide insight into the Arikara worldview, and Dorsey uses them to illustrate the tribe's beliefs about the natural world, the afterlife, and the role of humans in the universe. Overall, Traditions of the Arikara is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American culture and history. Dorsey's firsthand accounts and detailed descriptions offer a unique perspective on the Arikara way of life, and his work has helped to preserve the tribe's traditions for future generations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
