What reading level is Ceremonial Objects And Ornaments From Pueblo Bonito New Mexico book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
7. 5 mm. Thick, 8 cm. 1. 5 mm. Long, and 6 cm. 5 mm. Wide. The width, including the legs, is 7 cm. 1. 5 mm. The balls of turquoise that form the eyes are 8. 5 mm. In diameter and 3 mm. In height. The object was drilled for suspension, the holes being on the under part directly beneath the inlaid band. The incision made to receive the turquoise pieces forming the band was cut just deep enough to allow them to sink to the level of the surface, save at the ends where it was cut through to the oppo...site side. At these points the openings were triangular, and in cutting them through a separation was formed between the feet and the body, the parts being joined again at the point where the head and the toes meet.
The frog or the toad is a symbol of water among the Pueblo people of to-day, and there are numerous evidences tending to show that the same water symbol was employed by the ancient inhabi tants to as great an extent as by their descendants. In Pueblo Bonito and in nearby villages it has been found in the form of pot tery vessels, as well as carved from pure turquoise and scratched on stone slabs.
