The Mimbres cultural florescence between about AD 1000 and AD 1140
remains one of the most visually astonishing and anthropologically
intriguing questions in Southwest prehistory. In this revised
edition, noted Mimbres scholar Dr. J. J. Brody incorporates the
extensive fieldwork done since the original publication in 1977,
updating his discussion of village life, the larger world in which
the Mimbres people lived, and how the art that they practiced
illuminates these wider issues. He addresses human and animal
iconography, the importance of perspective and motion in
perceivingMimbres artistry, and the technology used to produce the
ceramics. This lively, engaging work will interest archaeologists,
art historians, and all people who enjoy the beauty of Mimbres
pottery. Featuring over one hundred new illustrations and insights
drawn from a lifetime of study and contemplation, this book is much
more than a revised edition; it establishes a new standard for the
artistic interpretation of a classic Southwestern culture for the
new century.
