Abstract:
This collection of 17 documents about the O'odham cover the Spanish period from 1687 to 1821, the Mexican period from 1821 to 1848, the American period from 1848 to approximately 1981, and interspersed, on occasion, with bits of information on the prehistory of the general region. Although many historians and anthropologists have treated the Pima and Papago as two separate peoples, by the early twenty-first century, the cultural similarity between the two, has led us to combine them in this collection under the new designation "O'odham". Cultural history and general ethnography are the major topics in many of the documents in this collection, notably by: Underhill; Fontana; Ezell; Bahr; and the history of Christianity among the Pima-Papago in Bahr. Other ethnographic topics discussed are: the life history of a Papago woman in Underhill; regional geography in Castetter; and Fontana; cultural adaptation in Fontana, Hackenberg, and Castetter. Personalilty development and child-rearing practices are major topics of discussion in Joseph. Finally, shamanism, theories of disease, and curing are all described in Bahr, while food and diet in comparison to disease factors, form a significant topic of discussion in Fazzino.
