What reading level is Introduction to the Study of Mortuary Customs Among the North American Indians book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" It seems beyond doubt that in the majority of cases, especially as regards the caves of the Western States and Territories, the interments were primary ones, and this is likewise true of many of the caverns of Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky, for in the three States mentioned many mummies have been found, but it is also likely that such receptacles were largely used as places of secondary deposits. The many fragmentary skeletons and loose bones found seem to strengthen this view. MUMMIES. In conn...ection with cave burial, the subject of mummifying or embalm- ing the dead may be taken up, as most specimens of the kind have gen- erally been found in such repositories. It might be both interesting and instructive to search out and discuss the causes which have led many nations or tribes to adopt certain processes with a view to prevent that return to dust which all flesh must sooner or later experience, but the necessarily limited scope of this preliminary work precludes more than a brief mention of certain theories advanced by writers of note, and which relate to the ancient Egyptians.
