Anotations

Scope note:

Navajo wearing blankets produced from in the mid-to-late 19th century. Declined in production because of the introduction of European aniline dyes and yarn at the end of the 19th century. Defined by terraced diamond designs and horizontal bands of indigo, red, black, and white yarn. Not associated with rank; "chief blanket" refers to their value assigned by Navajo and Plains communities.
