Description
Photograph of a family of escaped Yaqui Indians under a shelter in Arizona, ca.1910. The 8 figures (3 men, 2 women, 3 children) huddle just inside a thatched dwelling. Various cooking implements sit near a campfire near the group. A shovel leans against a thatched wall at left. An empty bottle litters the ground at right. A hill dotted with scrub brush rises in the background.
