1914 Bulletin 56, "Ethnozoology of the Tewa Indians." By Junius Henderson and John Peabody Harrington. The publication focuses on the language of the Tewa people and includes pronunciation and definitions of words, mostly that of animals and religion. There is little wear on cover, pages and binding. Peabody was one of the first graduates to receive a PhD in anthropology from Colombia University in 1901, which he received under the teachings of Franz Boas. Boas is known today as the "Father of American Anthropology." He later studied linguistics at Stanford University and became interested in Native languages while taking special classes at University of California, Berkeley by Alfred Louis Kroeber.
