Traders: Voices from the Trading Post
With funding from the now-disbanded United Indian Traders Association (UITA), the University of Northern Arizona's library is conducting oral history interviews with over fifty Indian traders of the southwest United States. More than just a collection of interviews, this site also contains photographic slide shows of traders and trading posts from 1860-1999. Additionally, the site contains interview excerpts about livestock, weaving, jewelry, pinon nuts, medicine men, and pawn. Focus is primarily on the Navajo, Hopi, and Zuni reservations of Arizona, New Mexico, and southern Utah and Colorado. A fascinating and historically important project.
