Zuni man-woman The Zuni man-woman Will Roscoe - Albuquerque, NM University of New Mexico Press 1991 - xxi, 302 p.
A death that caused universal regret
The middle place

The rites of gender
Two-fold one-kind
They left this great sin
The berdache tradition
The beginning
Correspondences of the Zuni origin myth
Kan'a kwe synonymy
This work focuses on the life of We'wha (1849-96), the Zuni who was perhaps the most famous berdache (an individual who combined the work and traits of both men and women) in American Indian history. Through We'wha's exceptional life, the author creates a vivid picture of an alternative gender role whose history has been hidden and almost forgotten
