"Oraibi Natal Customs and Ceremonies," originally published as Volume Fieldiana, Anthropology, v. 6, no.2, offers a detailed ethnographic study of the natal customs and ceremonies of the Oraibi people. Authored by George Amos Dorsey, Curator of the Department of Anthropology, this work provides valuable insights into the cultural practices surrounding birth and early childhood within the Oraibi community.
