Hummingbird, Ruby-throatedOperation RubyThroatThe Web's most comprehensive hummingbird site home: www.rubythroat.org Sign Our Guestbook Table of Contents This is a summary of the importance of hummingbirds in Native American Cultures. It was compiled from various sources by Vicki Lockard, editor of "CankuOta," a newsletter celebrating Native America; the summary is posted with hummingbird photos by Paul C. Barry at the 1 July 2000 Issue . For more details about CankuOta, visit its Home Page A Mayan legend says the hummingbird is actually the sun in disguise, and he is trying to court a beautiful woman, who is the moon. Another Mayan legend says the first two hummingbirds were created from the small feather scraps left over from the construction of other birds. The god who made the hummers was so pleased he had an elaborate wedding ceremony for them. First butterflies marked out a room, then flower petals fell on the ground to make a carpet; spiders spun webs to make a bridal pathway, then the sun sent down rays which caused the tiny groom to glow with dazzling reds and greens. The wedding guests noticed that whenever he turned away from the sun, he became drab again like the original gray feathers from which he was made. In a Navajo legend a hummer was sent up to see what is above the blue sky. It turns out to be absolutely nothing.

For much of that time, walking and running were the only means of travel and communication to bridge the huge, open spaces of the American continent. The migration route to the Americas was through the steppes and tundra of Siberia and Alaska, via the Bering land bridge, which was exposed by vast quantities of water locked up in the huge ice caps of the last Ice Age. Sometime between 15,000 and 12,000 years ago, humans followed mammoth, musk ox and caribou through a gap in the ice sheet that dominated North America, to emerge upon the great plains. These earliest inhabitants of the continent probably marched in small groups, most of their meager possessions perhaps carried by women using head straps (loads of as much as 150 pounds were reported in the pre-equine era among plains Indians). From the great plains the way was then open for their descendants to walk across mountain and desert, through jungle to the far reaches of Patagonia, a journey that may have taken less than a thousand years.

Free counter Pan [Click on the name of the moon above for astronomical information.] Pan (Greek): Son of Hermes. God of flocks, fertility, nature. Has been known to cause unreasoning terror, known as panic. Pan is half man and half goat. He loves mountains, caves, and lonely places where he can practice his pipes without disturbance. Prefers to sleep until noon and becomes furious if disturbed. Moon of Saturn The Prophecies of the Hopi People As you wind your way through the prophecies on this site and those you may find elsewhere, you would do well to pay particular attention to the accuracy of those of the Hopi People. Their prophecies are not written in obscure, archaic language, hidden away in dusty tomes. Hopi Elders pass these warnings to the next generations through word of mouth and with reference to ancient rock drawings and tablets, keeping track of those that have been fulfilled and paying close attention to warning signs. The following portion is from The Book of the Hopi by Frank Waters. This tidbit of Hopi prophecy, probably the only portion shared with whites at the time, has been reproduced many, many times and is usually the first glimpse of Hopi Prophecy that one encounters when researching the subject. Emergence to the Fifth World "The end of all Hopi ceremonialism will come when a Kachina removes his mask during a dance in the plaza before uninitiated children. For a while there will be no more ceremonies, no more faith. Then Oraibi will be rejuvenated with its faith and ceremonies, marking the start of a new cycle of Hopi life.

Free counter Telesto [Click on the name of the moon above for astronomical information.] Telesto: Daughter of Tethys and Oceanus. (Moon of Saturn Chief Dan Evehema's Message to Humankind We Hopi believe that the human race has passed through three different worlds and life ways since the beginning. At the end of each prior world, human life has been purified or punished by the Great Spirit Massauu due mainly to corruption, greed, and turning away from the Great Spirit's teachings. The last great destruction was the flood which destroyed all but a few faithful ones who received a permission from the Great Spirit to live with Him in this new land. The Great Spirit said, "It is up to you, if you are willing to live my poor, humble, and simple life way. It is hard but, if you agree to live according to my teachings and instructions, if you never lose faith in the life I shall give you, you may come and live with me." The Hopi and all who were saved from the great flood made a sacred covenant with the Great Spirit at that time. To the Hopi the Great Spirit is all powerful. He appeared to the first people as a man and talked with them in the beginning of the creation of this world. He taught us how to live, to worship, where to go and what food to carry, gave us seeds to plant and harvest. He gave us a set of sacred stone tablets into which he breathed all teachings. In these stone tablets were made instructions and prophecies and warnings. This was done with the help of Spider Woman. Before the Great Spirit went into hiding, He and Spider Woman put before the leaders of the different groups of people many colors and sizes of corn for them to choose. The Hopi was the last to pick and then chose the smallest ear of corn. Then Massauu said, "You have shown me you are wise and humble. For this reason you will be called Hopi (people of peace)."

35. C&MS: Meteors And The Native Americans That hopi Indian said How old am I? Fifty, maybe a hundred years, Some nativeAmericans seem to have realized that some meteors can reach the ground. http://comets.amsmeteors.org/meteors/metlegends.html

Meteors and the Native Americans By Gary W. Kronk No other culture can provide comparable information as that gathered from the Chinese and European records, but this need not be a deterrent from learning about how other cultures felt about these moving bodies in the sky and one of the richest regions of meteor and comet lore in the world is North America. One of the few dateable events among the various records of native Americans was the 1833 appearance of the Leonid meteor shower. Historically recognized as one of the greatest meteor storms on record, it made a lasting impression among the peoples of North America. The most obvious accounts of the Leonid storm appear among the various bands of the Sioux of the North American plains. The Sioux kept records called "winter counts," which were a chronological, pictographic account of each year painted on animal skin. In 1984, Von Del Chamberlain (Smithsonian Institution) listed the astronomical references for 50 Sioux winter counts, of which 45 plainly referred to an intense meteor shower during 1833/1834. In addition, he listed 19 winter counts kept by other plains Indian tribes, of which 14 obviously referred to the Leonid storm. The Leonids also appear among the Maricopa, who used calendar sticks with notches to represent the passage of a year, with the owner remembering the events. The owner of one stick claimed records had been kept that way "since the stars fell." The first notch on his stick represented 1833.

World Civilizations Encyclopedia of North American Indians Origins: Native American Perspectives The concepts of our origins and of how animals and spirit beings assist humans are reflected in the ways in which any group of human beings looks upon their place in the universe and their relationship to the world of spirits and animals. These concepts appear to be very nearly worldwide in scope. They give rise to stories of the great flood, of the twins, of Mother Earth, and of the first man and woman—themes running through the origin stories of nearly all Native American cultures. Some cultures tell of having been brought into existence by the creator; others believe they originated in the womb of Mother Earth. Common to all are animal and spiritual assistants, who, it is said, helped them through the trials and tribulations of their origins. Consider the three very basic and yet quite diverse origin stories that follow. According to the Zunis: In the beginning, here were no humans in this world.

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Maps ... World Civilizations Encyclopedia of North American Indians Child Rearing Underlying these characteristics is a view of children, from birth, as full participants in society, with a standing equal to that of adults. This attitude is a reflection of the religious orientation of Native Americans, in which all things in nature are accorded equal respect, be they inanimate or animate. Consequently, children were not expected to be supervised by adults but to be free like their elders, their freedom limited only by social obligations. As a result, child-care practices emphasized a responsiveness to the wishes of the child. For example, children were usually toilet trained when they were ready, and not according to a schedule based on adult needs, and in some societies children nursed for as long as five to seven years. Thus Native Americans allowed children to fit themselves into the social order, rarely using corporal punishment or other coercive methods to force conformity. At the time of contact with Europeans, most Native Americans lived in face-to-face communities where people knew one another. Child training was aided by shared values and an extended kinship system that tied an individual to all members of the society, either by descent or marriage, or through formal religious or social affiliations. As a consequence, all adults shared some responsibility for socializing the society's children.
