Humans and animals existed as mist or foam First Man and First Woman existed on opposite side, and found each other using fire made from Crystal and Turquoise. The different beings, insects and other creatures used witchcraft to war on each other. Because of the conflicts, they left the world and climbed up into the second world. First Man gathered 4 shafts of light, which they carried with them to the 2nd world The 2nd World- Ni ho dootlizh (The Blue World) A world of sky Blue birds existed here. The 4 shafts of light, that were collected in the 1st world unraveled them here. Like the 1st world, this was a world of conflict. The beings, Bears, Badgers, Bobcats, Foxes were all at war. They all wanted to leave, but first, First Man blew smoke over them, to remove the evil they had brought from the first world. Without the evil, they became the insects. First Man sent lightning, rainbows and sun rays in the 4 directions to try to find a way out of this world. Finally, he created prayer sticks of different materials, and put footprints on them. This allowed the beings of the 2nd world to rise up into the 3rd world. The 3rd World- Ni hatsoh (The Yellow World) The bright world. The beings arrived in the 3rd world, to see that there were 6 mountains. 4 in the directions, and 2 near the center. There were 2 great rivers, a male river and a female river. There were also Holy People in this world. The beings went about existing, until the Great Flood. The Flood The 3rd world was set up very much like our current world. The mountains and rivers were in their same places. The people here, were gathered near where Two Rivers came together. Here they were having a ceremony. Pottery was placed under the water at the confluence and spun like a whirlpool. The designs changed and images were seen that told the people certain information. During this ceremony, Coyote was walking along the river and saw two beautiful water babies. The Flood He decided, he would take these two babies, and he hid them under a blanket he was wearing. These were the children of The Water Monster. The Water Monster became angry and the waters began to rise, and massive floods were seen coming in from the 4 directions. First Man told the beings to gather, he went to all the 6 mountains and gathered bundles of dirt to take into the next world. Different birds flew up high into the sky looking for a way out, finally the Eagle found a hole in the sky and reported back. First Man, planted a juniper tree, hoping it would grow up into the sky and they would escape. It didn’t grow tall enough, so he planted a pine tree, The Flood The pine tree didn’t grow high enough, so he tried a male reed, which also didn’t grow high enough. Finally, he planted a female reed, which grew high in the sky and up through a hole. All the beings and animals climbed up the reed, through the hole in the sky, and emerged into the 4th world at a place called Hajiinei (The emergence place). This is located near the Confluence of the Colorado and Little Colorado River. As they were escaping, the water was rising, and the Turkey was the last animal on the reed, the rising water lapped at his tail feathers. This made his tail feathers iridescent. The 4rd World The people and beings arrived on top, and saw that the water was still rising. Below, they could see Water Monster Thrashing about in the rising water. They didn’t know why Water Monster was angry. Someone noticed Coyote had something under his blanket, and they found that he had the Water Monster Babies. Water Monster Rose up to the opening, and the people placed the Water Babies and offerings between the horns, and the Water Monster sank back into the water, and the Flood finally stopped. The 4rd World- Ni ha lgai (The Glittering World) The Glittering World On this world were beings, Holy People. Changing Woman, Salt Woman, the gods, other peoples the Pueblos. First Man and First Woman set out and created the 6 sacred mountains, and human kind began to populate the earth..

  • RECONNAISSANCE GEOLOGIC MAP of the QUEMADO 30 X 60 MINUTE QUADRANGLE, CATRON COUNTY, NEW MEXICO
    RECONNAISSANCE GEOLOGIC MAP OF THE QUEMADO 30 x 60 MINUTE QUADRANGLE, CATRON COUNTY, NEW MEXICO New Mexico Bureau of Mines and Mineral Resources Open-file Report 406 Richard M. Chamberlin, Steven M. Cather, Orin J. Anderson, and Glen E. Jones 1994 INTRODUCTION The Quemado 30 x 60 minute quadrangle, hereafter referred to as the Quemado sheet, is located in northern Catron County in west-central New Mexico. US-60 is the main access route across the Quemado sheet and serves the communities of Quemado and Pie Town (Fig. 1). Previous reconnaissance geologic maps covering the Quemado sheet (Fig. 2, Willard, 1957; and Willard and Weber, 1958) were made in the middle 1950s as part of a statewide mapping effort that culminated in the 1965 geologic map of New Mexico (Dane and Bachman, 1965). Our recent reconnaissance mapping of the Quemado sheet (1991-1993) was undertaken to provide new geologic data commensurate with that being used to prepare a digital geologic map of New Mexico (Anderson and Jones, 1994). Reconnaissance geologic data acquired by Chamberlin, Cather and Anderson (Fig. 3) was primarily plotted on 7.5 minute quadrangles (Fig. 1) at a scale of 1:24,000. Jones digitized this 1:24,000 data set using GSMAF' ver. 7.0 (developed by Gary Selner, USGS, Denver, CO); Jones then combined the 7.5 minute quadrangles at the 1:100,000 scale to produce a geologic map of the Quemado sheet. The digital printout of this geologic map, an explanatory lettering sheet, and the 1:100,000 USGS topographic base have been photographically combined to make the geologic map presented here.

  • Wilderness Area in New Mexico in Eighteen Years
    www.nmwild.org OJITO he story of Ojito is a long and circu- T itous one. Today the area is on the brink of becoming the first newly desig- nated wilderness area in New Mexico in eighteen years. The legislation that will accomplish this feat results from bipar- tisanship cooperation, locally-endorsed conservation, the efforts of numerous environmental organizations, and native groups like the Pueblo of Zia who value the Ojito area’s wildlife, rangelands, and religious sites. If this bill succeeds, it will be the result of years of effort, scores of dedicated advocates, and the kind of local organizing that put all of the stake- holders at the table from the beginning. From Wildlands to WILDERNESS The Ojito Wilderness Act was recently passed by the Senate and is waiting to be scheduled for a vote in the House of Representatives. From there it will move on to the President’s desk for his signa- ture. If all goes well, the Ojito Wilderness Act could be law as early as October of this year. But how did we get here? The effort to protect Ojito emphasizes the importance of collaborative teamwork to unite very different people for a common and posi- tive goal. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Pat Lyons: looked for potential wilderness areas a closer look at New Mexico’s among their land holdings in the state of New Mexico. Ojito was an attractive Land Commissioner piece of land from the beginning due to its unscarred landscape and diverse plant Purchase this beautiful Michelle Chrisman painting and benefit NMWA—see back cover.
