Under this theory, Christian domination over indigenous faiths is dramatized by surrounding the kiva with Christian buildings.
根据这一理论,基督教对土著信仰的统治是通过在地下礼堂周围建造基督教建筑来实现的。
For example, the mission churches share certain spatial qualities with the indigenous kiva, a round, partly subterranean room used by many Southwest Native American communities for important rituals.
