Colored Maps of South American Indigenous Groups
Two maps, apparently traced from Steward and Fanon's 1959 Native Peoples of South America. These maps have been colored in pencil to convey some information, perhaps subgroups mentioned in a classification by Joseph Greenberg., Dos mapas, aparentemente trazados de Native Peoples of South America por Steward y Fanon (1959). Los mapas fueron coloreados en lápiz para impartar alguna información, quizás los subgrupos mencionados en una clasificación de Joseph Greenberg.
