Santa Cruz Island Figure Sculpture and Its Social and Ritual Contexts,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Santa Cruz Island Figure Sculpture and Its Social and Ritual Contexts (Hardcover)
This book is an outstanding classic of its genre. It defines a specific type of sculpture in the Santa Cruz Islands. Identifies all the known examples in museums, private collections etc. Discusses how these statues were traditionally used in early Solomon Islands religion, as well as who collected these sculptures. Its also includes a CD of photos of daily life in the Santa Cruz Islands. This was William Davenports last work before his death and it stands as as testiment to the depth of his research. I would highly recommend it.
