Photograph of Hopi ("Moki") dancers throwing snakes into the circle of the sacred meal during the Snake Dance ceremony at Mishongnovi (Mashongnavi), Arizona, ca.1898. About a dozen dancers form a rough line. They wear highly decorated kilts with animal pelts hanging from the back, and bracelets on their upper arms. They are decorated on chest, face, and arms with white paint or dried mud. A few dwellings of the pueblo are visible in the background. A large stone box (?) sits in the foreground.

该照片拍摄于约1898年的美国亚利桑那州米尚戈维（Mishongnovi，亦称Mashongnavi），记录了霍皮族（Hopi，亦称“莫基”（Moki））舞者在蛇舞仪式（Snake Dance ceremony）中，将蛇投掷进神圣餐食围成的圆圈的场景。约十二名舞者组成松散队列，身着装饰华丽的褶裥短裙，背部垂挂动物毛皮，上臂佩戴手镯；其胸部、面部与手臂均涂抹白色颜料或干泥作为装饰。背景中可见几处普韦布洛（pueblo）村落的居所，前景处放置着一个疑似大型石盒的物件。
