""An Introduction to the Mortuary Customs of the North American Indians"" by C.H. Yarrow is a comprehensive guide to the burial practices and beliefs of various indigenous tribes in North America. The book covers a range of topics including the preparation of the body, funerary rites, and the construction of burial mounds and tombs. Yarrow draws upon his extensive fieldwork and research to provide detailed descriptions of the customs and beliefs of tribes such as the Sioux, Navajo, and Hopi. He also examines the role of mortuary customs in shaping cultural identity and social structures within these communities. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Native American culture or the history of mortuary practices in North America.""Two such mounds have been described already in the county of Perry. Others have been found in various parts of the country. There is one at least in the vicinity of Licking River, not many miles from Newark. There is another on a branch of Hargus's Creek, a few miles to the northeast of Circleville. There were several not very far from the town of Chillicothe. If these mounds were sometimes used as cemeteries of distinguished persons, they were also used as monuments with a view of perpetuating the recollection of some great transaction or event. In the former not more generally than one or two skeletons are found; in the latter none.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
