Tattooing Practices of the Cree Indians
CAD $30.00
Tattooing practices of the Cree Indians is fully referenced and illustrated in black and white and includes map of tribal areas covered in text. It contains “comparative data from the Ojibwa and Assiniboine with whom the Crees camped and hunted. These tribes often adopted each other’s customs to the point where it became difficult to distinguish one from another.”
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Douglas W. Light is Director of Collections and Curator of the Ethnology Department of Glenbow-Alberta Institute. A native of Battieford, Saskatchewan. He was associated with the museum there before joining the Luxton Museum in Banff, Alberta in 1957. Nine years later he joined Glenbow’s ethnology staff in Calgary and has carried out extensive field work among the Cree and Ojibwa.
Written in 1972 so it contains dated language.
If you are local to the Edmonton area and are interested in Indigenous Tattoo Artists & artwork I highly recommend checking out my good friend Poppy Del.
24 pages. Bibliography, diagrams, map and black and white photos.
