To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This is a kiva, and if we are hardy enough to brave the usual warning to the uninitiated, we may peep down without fear of swelling up and bursting. Perhaps, if there is no cere mony going on, a weaver may be making a blanket on his simple loom ; likely it is deserted, dusky and quiet with no suggestion of writhing serpents or naked votaries and weird chanting. All streets lead to the plaza, the center of interest, set apart for the many dances ; some solemn and awe-inspiring, some grotesque an...d amusing ; all dramatic in action and marvelous in color. In the center of the plaza is a stone box. This is a shrine, the focus at which all ceremonies center, and beneath it is the opening into the underworld of departed ancestors. Around most plazas in Tusayan the houses are built solidly ; at Wolpi the dances take place on .
the dizzy sandstone cliffs ; at Oraibi one side of the plaza where the Snake dance is enacted is open and the distant San Francisco mountains stand plainly on the horizon.
