Note 133 — COMPARATIVE STUDY OF KATCINA DANCES IN CIBOLA AND TUSAYAN
Reading edition
See “The Graff collection of Greek portraits,” New England Magazine, January, 1894. Mr J. G. Frazier (Jour. Anth. Inst. of Great Britain and Ireland, vol. XV, p. 73) from comparative studies of burial customs suggests that the habit of masking the dead is “to keep the way to the grave a secret from the dead man.” This explanation seems to me much more labored than that given above.
