Over the years we have seen the publication of a number of monumental books dealing with the Greater Southwest. In my own areas of interest some outstanding ones come immediately to mind: In the biological sciences there is Donald Hoffmeister’s Mammals of Arizona (1986), Raymond Turner, Janice Bowers, and Tony Burgess’s Sonoran Desert Plants: An Ecological Atlas (1995), Richard S. Felger’s Flora of the Gran Desierto and Río Colorado of Northwestern Mexico (2000), Richard Felger, Matthew Johnson, and Michael Wilson’s The Trees of Sonora, Mexico (2001), and Howard Scott Gentry’s Agaves of Continental North America (1982); in archaeology, Emil Haury’s The Hohokam, Desert Farmers and Craftsmen (1976); and from the mission era, Bernard L. Fontana’s A Gift of Angels: The Art of Mission San Xavier del Bac (2010). These works are thorough and definitive, unlikely to be superseded, except perhaps for bits of new information that might come to light. Now there is one more that can be added to this list of Southwest greats: Harry J. Winters Jr., ‘O’odham Place Names: Meanings, Origins, and Histories, Arizona and Sonora (Tucson: Nighthorses, 2012; $179). The ‘O’odham, known to outsiders for centuries as the River Pima and Papago, occupy Sonoran Desert in southern Arizona and northern Sonora. The country is part of the West’s basin-and-range province. This physiographic region is characterized by flat arid valleys or basins. Narrow

Harry J. Winters Jr. 的 'O'odham 地名:含义、起源和历史,亚利桑那州和索诺拉州

多年来,我们看到了许多关于大西南地区的重要书籍的出版。在我自己感兴趣的领域中,我会立即想到一些杰出的领域:在生物科学领域,有 Donald Hoffmeister 的《亚利桑那哺乳动物》(1986 年)、Raymond Turner、Janice Bowers 和 Tony Burgess 的《索诺兰沙漠植物:生态地图集》(1995 年)、Richard S. Felger 的《墨西哥西北部大沙漠和科罗拉多河的植物群》(2000 年)、Richard Felger、Matthew Johnson 和 Michael Wilson 的《墨西哥索诺拉的树木》(2001 年)和 Howard Scott Gentry 的《北美大陆龙舌兰》(1982 年);考古学,Emil Haury 的 The Hohokam,Desert Farmers and Craftsmen (1976);从传教时代开始,伯纳德·L·丰塔纳 (Bernard L. Fontana) 的《天使的礼物:圣泽维尔德尔巴克传教的艺术》(2010)。这些作品是彻底和确定的,不太可能被取代,除非可能会出现一些新信息。现在还有一个可以添加到这个西南伟人名单中:小哈里·J·温特斯,'奥德姆地名:意义、起源和历史,亚利桑那州和索诺拉州(图森:夜马,2012年;179美元)。'O'odham,几个世纪以来被外界称为皮马河和帕帕戈河,占据了亚利桑那州南部和索诺拉州北部的索诺兰沙漠。该国是西部盆地和山脉省的一部分。该自然地理区域的特点是平坦干旱的山谷或盆地。狭窄的 夜马,2012;179 美元)。'O'odham,几个世纪以来被外界称为皮马河和帕帕戈河,占据了亚利桑那州南部和索诺拉州北部的索诺兰沙漠。该国是西部盆地和山脉省的一部分。该自然地理区域的特点是平坦干旱的山谷或盆地。狭窄的 夜马,2012;179 美元)。'O'odham,几个世纪以来被外界称为皮马河和帕帕戈河,占据了亚利桑那州南部和索诺拉州北部的索诺兰沙漠。该国是西部盆地和山脉省的一部分。该自然地理区域的特点是平坦干旱的山谷或盆地。狭窄的
