Birdstones, small prehistoric stone sculptures shaped by Native Americans, are known for their simplicity and beauty. Mythical objects of the first art collections, these zoomorphic artifacts maintain similarities with the European prehistoric art, but also with the genesis of the sculpture of the twentieth century. Through this unprecedented book, written in French and English, Éric Genuese and Éric Mickeler, specialists of Native American art, will make you discover the origin, the functions and the lapidal techniques of this old art of the American Indians of the North.
