Paths of Life: American Indians of the Southwest

Ongoing Core Exhibit

This exhibit, developed through extensive consultations with tribal representatives, explores the origins, histories, and contemporary lifeways of ten groups native to the region (northern Mexico to northern Arizona) in a fascinating mix of life-size dioramas, prehistoric artifacts, and historic objects: Seri, Tarahumara, Yaqui, O'odham, Colorado River Yumans, Southern Paiute, Pai, Apache, Hopi, and Navajo.
