"Prehistoric Indians of the Southwest" by H. M. Wormington is a scientific publication written in the mid-20th century. The work explores the ancient cultures of the Southwest region of the United States, focusing on the peoples who inhabited this area over thousands of years, including the Anasazi, Mogollon, and Hohokam. Through a combination of archaeological findings and ethnographic accounts, the book aims to shed light on the lives, cultures, and historical timelines of these prehistoric inhabitants. The opening of the book presents a rich preface that sets the tone for its exploration of the Southwest's ancient cultures. It introduces the idea that the region has been shaped by various archaeological findings and cultural narratives over the past 25,000 years. Emphasizing the beauty and allure of the Southwest, Wormington discusses the importance of understanding prehistoric peoples and the methodologies used by archaeologists to build knowledge from the remnants they left behind. She intends to narrate these histories comprehensively for both laymen and students, while also advocating against the unscientific looting of archaeological sites, highlighting the need for a respectful understanding of the area's cultural heritage.
