New Issue of New Mexico Historical Review Added to UNT Dallas Library Collection

This month's issue of New Mexico Historical Review focuses on archeologist Polly Schaafsma and her work in studying Native American rock art. Guest editor Erika Bsumek gives a brief introduction to Schaafsma in the article "Polly Schaafsma's Indelible Mark." Bsumek discusses how Schaafsma blazed a way into studying different Native cultures of the Southwest by looking at their rock art, a cultural feature past archeologists had ignored. She then connects the art to the surrounding landscape to form a more complete picture of how the local Native American cultures existed. Schaafsma's work has influenced numerous people in various fields of study, and this journal's collection of articles about her and her work are a testament to her lasting influence.
