520 _a"The dance has had a long history on the American continent. Before the New World was "discovered," there was dancing in the Mexico of Montezuma and the pueblos of the Southwest. Countless centuries before he Spanish invader brought the horse to the Great Plains, the unmounted, pedestrian tribes danced for the hunt, the wa, and for medicine. When Virginia and Florida were explored in the sixteenth century, French and English adventurers sketched the ceremonials they witnessed and left descriptions that have come down to us today." -- Preface.
