'Unwritten Literature of the Hopi' Summary
It is a well-known anthropological study that explores the Hopi people’s culture, particularly their myths, rituals, and social organization. Lockett uses a combination of observation and the analysis of Hopi oral traditions to draw connections between their folklore and their everyday life. This publication, part of the University of Arizona’s Social Science Bulletin, was significant in early studies of Native American cultures and played a role in understanding how indigenous knowledge and beliefs are preserved and passed down through oral traditions.
