The Upland Salado people of the Globe-Miami area in central Arizona have left us an expansive trove of iconography. This volume documents a Kayenta immigrant population at Besh-Ba-Gowah. Development of Salado iconography is followed from the Old World, through the Early Postclassic International Symbol Set and Mimbres figurative pottery design, to A.D. 1440s Salado ceramic symbolism. Mesoamerican god cults and the psychoactive medicinals associated with them, as expressed in Salado iconography, are discussed in relationship to religious change and the local termination of the Salado phenomenon in this fascinating, very readable, and rigorously documented report, which is richly illustrated with nearly 200 drawings.
