"Catalogo de los Objetos Etnologicos y Arqueologicos Exhibidos por la Expedición Hemenway" is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The book documents the findings of an ethnological and archaeological expedition funded by Mary Hemenway, focusing on the indigenous peoples of New Mexico and Arizona, particularly the Hopi Tribe. It presents a comprehensive collection of artifacts alongside detailed observations on the customs and practices of the Hopi, revealing continuity andchange since the days of European contact. The opening of the work introduces the Expedition Hemenway, outlining its goals and accomplishments. It emphasizes the extensive collection gathered over several years, aiming to shed light on the cultural practices of the sedentary Hopi tribes. The prologue highlights the archaeological findings from the Tusayán province, detailing the geographical setting, the lifestyle of the Hopi, and their spiritual beliefs. Through a structured catalog, the text elaborates on an array of artifacts—ceramic pieces, tools, and religious symbols—thereby serving as a vital source of information on the Hopi's historic and contemporary culture.
