T HE covered bridge belongs in the same category as keelboats, prairie schooners, and other picturesque and largely obsolete traits of a formative stage in American development. Besides its romantic and antiquarian appeal, to the student of man and his works the covered bridge is a conspicuous detail of the cultural scene. By its presence or absence in a complex of traits it aids the recognition of regions. Knowledge of the origin and diffusion of the covered bridge contributes to an understanding of cultural differentiation
