Excerpt: ... of grief and fear, so that even the little children clung to their mothers and made no sound. "Presently Pontho raised his head and looked around; all his people were there waiting, watching, wondering. Walking slowly to the door of his hut, he drew aside the curtain of hanging;ules. "'Col-ma-chuse, Cedro, Mesawealy!' he called. "The three men stepped out into the firelight, and between them walked Calamee. His hands were tied behind his back, his long hair fell around his face and sholuders loosely, his eyes looked only at the ground. The men walked to a place near the fire and stopped. "When the people saw the Yuma, there came a low sound like the moaning of the night wind on the mountains; then the silence was greater than before. Pontho gave the Yuma a long, stern look, then spoke: "'Calame, ' he asked, 'when first you came among us, did we not receive you kindly?' "'Yes, ' came the answer, low and clear. "'And when you came the second time, did we not still treat you like one of us?' "'Yes, ' answered Calamee again. "'When you went from our village back to your own people, ' said Pontho, speaking very slowly, 'did you tell them of the richness of our valley, and of our many cattle and sheep?' "Calamee bowed his head. "'When you came here the second time, did you know that a party of your young men were coming to rob and kill our people?' "This time the Yuma waited a little before answering, while all the eager faces around bent forward the better to hear. Finally it came, the same as before, but very low: "'Yes.' "'And when they came and were camped just over the mountain, did you carry them food and tell them where Katong lived alone by the river?' "'Yes, ' Calamee answered wearily, as if very tired. "There was a pause, and no sound...

Book excerpt: "Traditions that began ten thousand years ago have survived and remain vital in the lives of the descendants of these ancient people. People of Legend surveys the terrain inhabited by each of six principal tribal groups, relates their creation myths and the history of their conquest, and presents a portfolio of 87 stunning photographs of the landscapes and peoples in the heartland of Native America." "In southeastern Arizona, Annerino visits the Apache to photograph a coming-of-age ceremony in which a young girl is identified with White Shell Woman, the guardian spirit who watches over the tribe and protects its future. In the Sonoran desert of southwestern Arizona, an old Papago man points out ancient petroglyphs, familiar to him, uninterpretable to the anthropologist today. The Sierra Madre Mountains of northern Mexico are home to the Mountain Pima, where Indian men, their faces painted white, welcome the American photographer into their sacred ritual." "Further on the journey, a Hualapai guide takes Annerino down the Colorado, a trip the man's ancestors have taken for a thousand years. In the mesa country of northern Arizona, a Navajo elder reminisces about working for Army Intelligence during World War II. This cultural odyssey ends in the redrock country of New Mexico, home to Pueblo peoples such as the Zuni, Keresan, and Tewa, and the site of the largest traditional Gathering of Nations in the Southwest."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book American Indian Tribes of the Southwest written by Michael G Johnson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04-20 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This focuses on the history, costume, and material culture of the native peoples of North America. It was in the Southwest – modern Arizona, New Mexico, and parts of California and other neighboring states – that the first major clashes took place between 16th-century Spanish conquistadors and the indigenous peoples of North America. This history of contact, conflict, and coexistence with first the Spanish, then their Mexican settlers, and finally the Americans, gives a special flavor to the region. Despite nearly 500 years of white settlement and pressure, the traditional cultures of the peoples of the Southwest survive today more strongly than in any other region. The best-known clashes between the whites and the Indians of this region are the series of Apache wars, particularly between the early 1860s and the late 1880s. However, there were other important regional campaigns over the centuries – for example, Coronado's battle against the Zuni at Hawikuh in 1540, during his search for the legendary “Seven Cities of Cibola”; the Pueblo Revolt of 1680; and the Taos Revolt of 1847 – and warriors of all of these are described and illustrated in this book.
