This artwork by Gustaf Nordenskiöld (1868-1895) is a detailed illustration of various amulets found in the Mesa Verde National Park. The image depicts four amulets, likely crafted by the ancestral Puebloan people, whose culture flourished in the region from roughly 600 to 1300 CE. The amulets are drawn in a straightforward, almost scientific manner, emphasizing their shape and form. Nordenskiöld, a Swedish anthropologist and archaeologist, produced this illustration prior to 1893, providing valuable insight into the material culture of the indigenous people of the Mesa Verde region.
