Ex-votos, small metal objects often in the shapes of human figures or specific parts of the body, are presented as gifts to supernatural beings in thankful reciprocation for favors received: extraordinary objects endowed with qualities that transcend the everyday." "Drawing on examples from the Alexander Girard Collection at the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, this book describes the uses of these objects by people around the world who embrace different systems of faith and follow distinct cultural and ritual practices."--BOOK JACKET.
