Caribbean Figure Pendants: Style and Subject Matter. Anthropomorphic Figure Pendants of the Late Ceramic Age in the Greater Antilles. Gaule and the 228 color illustrationsThis work synthesizes art historical and anthropological methods in the analysis of a large corpus of indigenous figure pendants, commonly called amulets, from the Greater Antilles and Bahamas.

The data are drawn from new photographs, measurements, and observations of 535 specimens compiled by the author during 2011
