From the Publisher
First published in 1938 as the Smithsonian Institution Bureau of American Ethnology Bulletin 120, and reprinted in 1970 by the University of Utah Press, this study is a classic in the field of Great Basin ethnology. Steward is considered one of the foremost exponents of cultural evolution in the United States, and his work is a major contribution to the study of social organization and to North American ethnography. Out of print for several years, we are pleased to make this important volume available for a new generation of anthropologists.

Basin-Plateau Aboriginal Sociopolitical Groups,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Basin Plateau Aboriginal Sociopolitical (Smithsonian Institution Bureau of American Ethnology Bulletin, No 20) (Paperback)
Steward's most descriptive work for his cultural ecology model, based on extensive study of paleo-indian technology and environment. Contains some of dry statistics, but I found the contextual-functionist theory made clear by Steward's models and data. This is an absolute must for any student of american anthropology and archaeology.
