A good share of the credit for the success of the gathering goes to each of you as participants Those of us who have ancestors in this region are especially grateful to have shared in such heartfelt conversations. It was thoughtful of you to add your personal observations. Your contribution also gave a great boost to our efforts to recruit additional members, and observers in attendance also were a great presence at the meetings. Thank you very much for an enlightening and stimulating presentation. Individual comments were exactly what were needed for us to envision land protection that has identity and meaning to Tribal peoples. Your discussion-group presentation was the highlight of the conference. Your contributions will help the Grand Canyon Trust incorporate Native American perspectives in our efforts to protect Indigenous lands and develop future strategy. We have already begun to implement some of your suggestions, and we are confident they will improve our process to protect and restore the Colorado Plateau and promote a region where generations of people and all of nature can thrive in harmony.

  • TURQUOISE, the MAGICAL STONE and the ZUNI INDIANS Meldan
    TURQUOISE, THE MAGICAL STONE AND THE ZUNI INDIANS Meldan TANRISAL Abstract This brief study illustrates how turquoise occupies such an integral part in the lives of Zuni Indians. The magical mysterious blue stone of religious significance is used extensively in ceremonies, for adornment, and investment. It has played an important role in the everyday and ceremonial life of these people from historic times to the present. In today's world Pueblo Indians consider turquoise to be sacred. There are many references to turquoise in Zuni folklore and myths. At present, turquoise is used extensively as the main decorative element in silverwork. Key words: Turquoise, sacred stone, Native American jewelry, Zuni silverwork. Sihirli Taş Turkuaz ve Zuni Kızılderilileri Özet Bu çalışma turkuvaz taşının Zuni Kızılderilileri’nin yaşamındaki önemini anlatmaktadır. Dini önemi olan bu sihirli ve gizemli taş törenlerinde kullanılır, takı olarak kullanılır ve yatırım yerine geçer. Geçmişten günümüze bu insanların günlük ve törensel yaşamlarında önemli bir yer tutmuştur. Günümüz dünyasında Pueblo Kızılderilileri turkuvaz taşını kutsal sayarlar. Zuni folklöründe ve mitlerinde bu taşa pek çok referans vardır. Gümüş takıların ana öğesini oluşturan turkuvaz günümüzde yaygın olarak kullanılır. Anahtar kelimeler: Turkuaz, kutsal taş, Kızılderili takıları, Zuni gümüş işlemeciliği. 544 Türkiyat Araştırmaları The word turquoise comes from the French pierre turquoise, meaning stone of Turkey; in the past most turquoise was sold in Turkey. It occurs in nodules and veins of green or blue. Copper makes it blue; iron makes it green (50). The above is information found in EYEWITNESS BOOKS: CRYSTALS AND GEMS on turquoise, the magical stone. The blue-green stone has occupied an important place almost in every aspect of the lives of most Southwestern Indians, both prehistoric and modern.
