Description:
From: North American Indian Costumes, Vol. 1, p. 14: The Mohaves were the largest and most warlike of the Yuma tribes. Since first known, they have lived on both sides of the Colorado River, in California and Arizona, near Needles. The Mohaves were a husky and athletic folk, and their women not unattractive. They early acquired fame for the elaborate painting of their bodies. Tattooing was universally practiced among them. They made (and still make) a crudely decorated pottery. Though living on the river, they knew nothing of the canoe but, instead, used crude rafts made of bundles of river reeds. They preferred living in isolated dwellings of brush instead of towns. These shelters were of the simplest construction, four posts supporting a flat roof of brush covered with sand. Rarely were these shelters more than three or four feet high. The Mohaves were not great hunters. They relied on cultivated foods like corn and beans; they also picked the wild mesquite beans, pinon nuts, and caught a little fish and small desert rodents. Instead of irrigating their fields, they depended on the annual floods to supply moisture for their crops; they starved with the floods were insufficient. They did not make clothes with skins, but they used the inner bark of the willow and vegetable fibers in making their few garments. In olden times, their women wore no clothing above the waist and kept their hair loose and untidy. Plate 12 represents a Mohave dandy in all his ancient painted splendour, before they adopted articles of white men's apparel. description From: North American Indian Costumes, Vol. 1, p. 14: The Mohaves were the largest and most warlike of the Yuma tribes.
