Beliefs and Holy Places

The region once known as Pimeria Alta--now southern Arizona and northern Sonora--has for more than three centuries been a melting pot for the beliefs of native Tohono O'odham and immigrant Yaquis and those of colonizing Spaniards and Mexicans. The author reveals some of the supernaturally sanctioned relationships that tie people to places within religious meanings of locations and showing how bonds between people and places have in turn created relationships between places, a spiritual geography undetectable on physical maps. -- from cover.
