Sweat-house

Yurok Sweat-House

Above we show a nice photo of the Entrance to a Yurok Sweat-house. It was made in 1923 by Edward S. Curtis.

The illustration shows a Sheltered hole in a mound of earth lined with boards, and with large rocks in foreground.

We have compiled this collection of artwork mainly to serve as a vital educational resource. Contact curator@old-picture.com.
