Abstract
ABSTRACTRecorded instances of human figures, hands and feet with extra digits occur in rock art in the Southwest, either as six fingers or six toes. This has raised the question of whether or not this was a deliberate exaggeration by the artists or actual representation of Polydactyly. Recent findings in skeletal material from Pueblo Bonito and Sand Canyon confirm that Polydactyly did exist among the Anasazi of the prehistoric Southwest, and findings from Las Humanas at Gran Quivira show that Polydactyly was also present in the early historic period.
