  • The Hopi Kachina Cult: Religion and Ritual As Elements of Cultural Identity Preservation
    Journal of American Studies of Turkey 8 (1998) : 29-42. The Hopi Kachina Cult: Religion and Ritual as Elements of Cultural Identity Preservation Meldan Tanrısal Ozymandias has fallen on his face, but the Hopi kachinas still stand erect in their ancestral kivas. Watson Smith Introduction The descendents of the prehistoric peoples who lived in the Southwest of the United States fifteen hundred years ago, the Pueblo Indians have to this day preserved their identity and rich culture despite the assaults of Euro-American civilization. If certain traditional forms of Pueblo life seem to have changed little from, for example, ten centuries ago, it is because, for the Pueblo, religion and ritual have been inseparable from social life. Their religion has protected them from the encroachment of outside influences. Among the Pueblo Indians, the Hopi have changed least of all. It is generally agreed that the Hopi have been able to preserve their way of life due to their creed, known as the “Kachina cult.” While this Kachina cult on the one hand reflects the Hopi’s dependence on agriculture for survival in a dry and rugged climate, it has functioned, on the other hand, as a crucial element in the preservation and assertion of their identity and culture. This article takes a closer look at the Kachina cult, through a discussion of its beliefs, of the artifacts such as masks and Kachina dolls, of the nature of the Kachinas as spiritual beings and as fertility providers, and of the Hopi Kachina ceremonies that make use of these artifacts and philosophies.

    THE COLORADO MAGAZINE Published by The State Historical and Natural History Society of Colorado Devoted to the Interests of the Society, Colorado, and the West Copyrighted 1924 by the State Historical and Natural History Society of Colorado. VOL. Denver, Colorado, November, 1924 NO. 7 Spanish Expeditions Into Colorado:f. By Alfred Barnaby Thomas, M. A., Berkeley, California. I. INTRODUCTION We customarily associate Spanish explorations in the West with New Mexico, with Texas, with Arizona, or with California, but not with Colorado. Yet Spaniards in the eighteenth century were well acquainted with large portions of the region now com­ prised in that state. Local historians of Colorado often err by pushing the clock too far back, and asserting that Coronado, Oriate, and other sixteenth century conquistadores entered the state. On the other hand, they fail to mention several important expeditions which at a later date did enter the confines of the state. An Outpost of New Mexico.-The Colorado region in Span­ ish days was a frontier of New Mexico. Santa Fe was the base for Colorado as San Agustin was for Georgia. Three interests especially spurred the New Mexicans to make long journeys northward to the Platte River, to the upper Arkansas in central Colorado, and to the Dolores, Uncomphagre, Gunnison, and Grand Rivers on the western borders. These interests were Indians, French intruders, and rumored mines. After 1673 reports of Frenchmen in the Pawnee country constantly worried officials at Santa Fe. Frequently tales of gold and sil'ver were wafted southward to sensitive Spanish ears at the New Mexico capital.

  • SOCIAL SCIENCES Winter 2021 CROSSINGS Vol
    SOCIAL SCIENCES Winter 2021 CROSSINGS Vol. 1 Masks and Rain Spirits: Mesoamerican Influences on Southwestern Kachina Ceremonialism Authored by Thomas Lai Anthropology (Honors) This study examines Mesoamerican influences on kachina ceremonialism, a Southwestern religious institution in which kachina spirits infiltrate Pueblo communities for a portion of the year as masked impersonators. Kachina spirits are in fact ancestral spirits who inhabit the underworld. They emerge in cloud-form from mountain tops to bring rain to the fields of the living. Kachina ceremonialismIntroduction arose in the thirteenth to fourteenth centuries during the Pueblo IV period following the Chacoan collapse, representing a social adaptation encouraging integration and stability in newly-established Pueblo communities. Whether the kachina cult’s genesis is represented by ceramic evidence in the western Little Colorado Badin, or rock art in the eastern Rio Grande, a significant Mesoamerican ideological substrate fed into its origins: the Southwest imported such Mesoamerican commodities as copper bells, Scarlet Macaws, and the Mesoamerican ballgame, the latter two of which left ideological impressions evident in kiva murals and ceramic motifs. Ultimately, it was the Mesoamerican cult of the rain-bringing dead which was modified into the socially-integrative kachina cult in response to Pueblo IV social needs, as well as the Southwest’s arid environment. Keywords: Kachina, Plaza, Kiva, Pinedale, Fourmile, Jornada, Tlaloc, Teixiptla The Southwest is arguably the most distinguished division of North American archaeology, benefitting from a well-preserved archaeological record that captures the imaginations of archaeologists and laymen alike. In this rich cultural environment, kachina ceremonialism is the most iconic aspect of living Pueblo culture, a social ceremony stirring the whole community into motion as the spirits come once again to live amongst the people.

  • 1 Navajo and Zuni Turquoise
    Navajo and Zuni Turquoise: A Squash Blossom Necklace Case Study By Lucy Gamble Native American jewelry has been admired as adornment and investigated as functional works of cultural significance since the earliest Spanish contact in the 1500s. The unique styles of Native American jewelry across the American Southwest distinguish the pieces as emblems of their region and culture. Although each piece of jewelry is distinct, there are many reoccurring design elements and symbols throughout generations and various tribes. One identifiable widely repeated element of Native American jewelry is the use of the naturally occurring stone turquoise. Turquoise is used in many different types of jewelry, but it is prominently featured in the squash blossom necklace. In my thesis, I use methods of material culture and symbolic anthropology to investigate the use of turquoise in the squash blossom necklace. My work focuses on a collection of squash blossom necklaces collected from donors between 1935 and 1985, and housed at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, to examine design elements and themes amongst the necklaces. Investigating the issues of transforming cultural items to commodities, I analyze these objects as reflective of the culture from which they originate. The market for Native American jewelry complicates the cultural analysis of these objects. When a jeweler is creating a piece within a cultural context it can be examined as reflective of that particular culture, but when the piece is created to be sold there are complications. Placing a value on the necklace puts a price on the cultural value, which in turn has the consumer viewing culture as commodity.
