Newton H. Winchell's 1911 Aborigines of Minnesota is still one of the most valuable resources for rock art research in Minnesota. Winchell published many drawings and included information from the work of Theodore H. Lewis, Alfred J. Hill, and Jacob Brower. The copyright has expired on this work. This website therefore makes available to the general public some of the illustrations and text which may be of interest regarding rock art in Minnesota. Winchell's book has 761 numbered pages, 36 half tone page plates, 26 folded inserts, and 642 figures inserted in the text. This webpage scans only a very small portion of this monumental work and what is included here are sections that might be of interest to rock art researchers.Each weblink is to a .jpg file scanned at 100 dpi and the files are usually between 150k and 220k per page. The .jpg is of one page, plate, or diagram in the text. This means it will be slow to load through a modem. You are getting relative image quality, not relatively fast loading speeds. These pages were scanned on the black and white photo setting and saved as medium compression .jpg's. This approach preserves the appearance of the original page but may test your patience waiting for a page to load. The advantage to this approach is that you should be able to read everything on the page on your computer screen, print it with readable (but not terrific) results on a regular piece of paper, be able to download a .jpg file with enough resolution to be able to manipulate the image in Photoshop should you need to, and not use up all of my server space. Scanning for a webpage is an exercise in compromise to avoid exhorbitantly large files.

I should also mention that the original book is heavy, unwieldy, and had a thick binding so there will be some darkness on scans near the binding. Also, some of the plates are of unusual size which required a left, middle, and right side scan of the plate to get the whole thing. There were times I could have used 3, if not 4, hands.
