Pima baskets refer to the intricate, coiled baskets traditionally woven by the Akimel O'odham (also known as Pima or River People), a Native American tribe primarily from central and southern Arizona, along the Gila and Salt Rivers. These baskets are renowned for their fine craftsmanship, geometric designs, and cultural significance, often symbolizing elements of Pima mythology and daily life. They were historically used for practical purposes like food storage, winnowing grain, and ceremonies, but by the late 19th and early 20th centuries, they became sought-after collectibles.
