Tucson; 1940): The University of Arizona. First Edition. Small Quarto. Signed by the author. 128pp., illustrated with photographs of ecavation sites, and with 35 colored plates. The Kinishba people lived in Arizona 1000-950A.D. and then disappeared. The author and his students began work of exavating Kinishba. It emerged slowly from six centuries of neglect. Much of it restored. Its beauties were housed in a museum on the site. The author presents his work showing its significances in hopes to serve as an inspiration to those archaeologists who come after him, will provide a source of understanding for the great pre-history of the Southwest.
