Native American voices on identity, art, and culture

Description:

"The dynamic discourse stimulated by 78 magnificent objects created by Native Americans over the years, now housed in the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, and the responses of contemporary Native Americans to those objects forms the core of this book. The book itself helps define the Museum's role within the realms of a large research university and the general public, presenting and clarifying some of the connections between the Museum and the Native American communities."--BOOK JACKET.
