On the banks of the Arkansas River in eastern Oklahoma, Spiro rose to become one of the most remarkable cultural and ceremonial centers in pre-European-contact North America, part of a vast Mississippian world stretching from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico.
"Recovering Ancient Spiro" brings that world to life through thousands of extraordinary objects depicting people, deities, animals and mysterious composite creatures.
These images reveal the beliefs, ceremonies and daily lives of the people of Spiro, as well as their connections to Native communities today.
This book is a must-have for anyone fascinated by Native American art, archaeology and ancient history.
