Description
Photograph of a view of a Hopi Indian tribe performing the Oraibi Corn Stalk Scuffle(?), ca.1900. There is a commotion of men, women and children running around. There appears to be three main clusters of people: one cluster is in the foreground, another cluster is behind the first cluster, and the last cluster is gathered at right. A majority of the people is standing. The location appears to be somewhere in an undeveloped desert area.
