EDITORS COMMENTS
Acoma, New Mexico: A Glimpse into the Past (1899-1928) This photograph, captured between 1899 and 1928 by renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe, offers a captivating view of the Acoma Pueblo area in Cibola County, New Mexico. The image transports us back in time, inviting us to witness the daily life of this unique community nestled in the American Southwest. The scene is set against the backdrop of the vast, arid landscape, with adobe houses and buildings standing proudly amidst the rugged terrain. The mud bricks, a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the local people, are a striking contrast to the clear blue sky. Two men, dressed in traditional clothing, are seen in the foreground, one leading a donkey and the other a horse, adding a sense of motion and activity to the image. The Acoma Pueblo, also known as Sky City, is a historic Native American community that has been inhabited for over 800 years. The people of Acoma, who are part of the Puebloan culture, have maintained their rich heritage through generations, preserving their traditions and way of life. This photograph, now held in the Library of Congress, is a precious reminder of the past and a testament to the resilience and enduring spirit of the people of Acoma. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, inviting us to appreciate the beauty and diversity of American history.
