Indians as readers, orators, singers, and auditors; Native language =
liturgy; songs and hymns; codices, winter counts, textiles, carvings, =
and wampum belts. We especially welcome proposals which represent a =
geographical diversity of indigenous cultures in the Americas (including =
the Southeast, the Plains, the Southwest, Mexico and Central America) =
during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
