Naranjo Jr. 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My gratitude goes out to the many people, places, and events that made this project possible. Thank you to my dissertation committee: K. Tsianina Lomawaima Ph.D., Nancy Parezo Ph.D., Elizabeth Kennedy Ph.D., Michael Brescia Ph.D., and Aurore Chabot, M.F.A. Also, my thanks to Dr. Maria Teresa Velez, Associate Dean of the Graduate School and Debbi Golden Davis, Office of Financial Aid. To my Tohono O’odham consultants: C. Alicia Chuhuhua, Mattías Chuhuhua Gomez and his family, Candelaria Pedro, Luis, Miguel, Alma, Yamilet, and Grecia, Carmen Rodriguez- Napoleon, Rafael Rodriguez-Napoleon, Candelario Zacarias-Napoleon, Ricardo Rodriguez-Napoleon, Francisca Salas-Rodriguez, Marco Antonio Salas-Rodriguez, and Dena Thomas. Also to Claudio Alonso Murrieta-Ortiz, the priest for the Pitiquito community. I am indebted to the generosity of the American Philosophical Society’s Native American Grants for research, the American Indian Studies Mini Grant for travel in Latin America, the University of Arizona Graduate College Marshall Fellowship, the Tohono O'odham Nation Education and Scholarship fund and the UofA American Indian Studies Program. Also to my good friends Susan Lobo, Antonio S. Abeyta, Greg Schoon, To:bi Keli or Bernard “Bunny” Fontana, Alan Ferg, Diane “Miss Star” Dittemore, and Diana Hadley. In Mexico City, thank you to Victor the extremely helpful hostel manager, the “Coyote Back Packers” and finally to the “copy guy” (never got his name down) for the Archivo General de la Nacíon, as he knew the archives better than the archivists and librarians and his knowledge was an enormous help. I thank you all. 5 DEDICATION I dedicate this project to my mother Rosita, as well as three individuals that have passed away before the completion of this project: To my best friend and companion in the field, Annie Manuel (Hickiwan, AZ); To Candelario for his bright, devilish and candid smile--always ready to go look for aluminum cans or clay; and to the grandfather I never had, Mattías Chuhuhua (Cu’i wuadam) Gómez. Mattías knew more about Sonoran Tohono O’odham culture and life than I could ever learn in one lifetime, the last of his generation. May they all rest in eternal peace. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ...............................................................................................................8 LIST OF TABLES.................................................................................................................9 ABSTRACT...........................................................................................................................10 PART ONE: RESEARCH ..................................................................................................12 1.1 Central influence of the international boundary .......................................................13 1.2 Cultural, nationalistic and political discontinuities between the northern and southern Tohono O’odham......................................................................................14 Discontinuities across the border........................................................................14 O’odham views of one another north and south of the international boundary .16 1.3 Locale: the mission pueblo or town of Pitiquito, Sonora .........................................18 Historical geography...........................................................................................18 Contemporary geography ...................................................................................19 1.4 Methods: The beginning, the Institutional & Tribal research approval process and social conviviality....................................................................................................23 The Institutional & Tribal research approval process.........................................23 Methodology for fieldwork ................................................................................25 Giving back to the community ...........................................................................30 1.5 Conceptual design and artistic theoretical foundation of the mural .........................30 1.6 Themes derived from field research and experiences...............................................32 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS - Continued 1.7 Conceptual elements of the mural: culture, basket weaving and calendar sticks.....34 PART TWO: HUA A’AGA: BASKET TALE NARRATIVES........................................38 2.1 Oral Tradition ...........................................................................................................38 2.2 Kinship......................................................................................................................41 2.3 Tradition and Modernity in 2007..............................................................................46 2.4 Feast of St. Francis at Magdalena de Kino in Sonora, Mexico ................................49 2.5 Nationalism...............................................................................................................55 2.6 Importance of Photography ......................................................................................59 2.7 Identity......................................................................................................................63 2.8 Cultural persistence through pottery and basketmaking...........................................68 CONCLUSION......................................................................................................................72 ENDNOTES ..........................................................................................................................73 APPENDIX A: INTERVIEW SCHEDULE 1.......................................................................75 APPENDIX B: INTERVIEW SCHEDULE 2.......................................................................76 APPENDIX C: ENGLISH PARTICIPANT INFORMED CONSENT ................................77 APPENDIX D: SPANISH PARTICIPANT INFORMED CONSENT.................................80 APPENDIX E: TOHONO O’ODHAM LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL RESOLUTION .........82 APPENDIX F: TOHONO O’ODHAM EXECUTIVE APPROVAL....................................84 REFERENCES ......................................................................................................................85 8 LIST OF FIGURES FIGURE 1, Photograph of completed ceramic tile mural .....................................................11 FIGURE 2, Map of the state of Sonora with inset of the town of Pitiquito ..........................20 FIGURE 3, Example of O’odham painting in Pitiquito

It has been accepted for inclusion in HOPI NATION: Essays on Indigenous Art, Culture, History, and Law by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. CHAPTER 7 The Enduring Hopi Peter Iverson “What then is the meaning of the tricentennial observance? It is a reaffirmation of continuity and hope for the collective Hopi future.” The Hopi world is centered on and around three mesas in northeastern Arizona named First, Sec- ond, and Third. It is at first glance a harsh and rugged land, not always pleasing to the untrained eye. Prosperity here can only be realized with patience, determination, and a belief in tomorrow.1 For over 400 years, the Hopis have confronted the incursion of outside non-Indian societies. The Spanish entered Hopi country as early as 1540. Then part of Francisco Vásquez de Coronado’s explor- ing party invaded the area with characteristic boldness and superciliousness. About twenty Spaniards, including a Franciscan missionary, confronted some of the people who resided in the seven villages that now comprise the Hopi domain, and under the leadership of Pedro de Tovar, the Spanish over- came Hopi resistance, severely damaging the village of Kawaiokuh, and winning unwilling surrender.

Its unique boundaries border Mexico, Arizona and California. Thriving along the banks is an invasive and dangerous plant called salt cedar. Its roots drink deeply, helping to lower the water table and adding large deposits of salt to the soil. As its roots and branches grow, its prolific and highly flammable branches threaten wetland ecosystems and create a significant fire hazard to neighboring communities when wildfires occur. It is also choking out the native willow, cottonwood, and mesquite trees the Cocopah people use for cultural and spiritual purposes. Firefighters from Fort Apache Agency remove invasive salt cedar brush from the Cocopah Reservation as part of the Southern Border Fuels Management Initiative, 2019.

  • Tribal Perspectives on the Hohokam
    Bulletin of Old Pueblo Archaeology Center Tucson, Arizona December 2009 Number 60 Michael Hampshire’s artist rendition of Pueblo Grande platform mound (right); post-excavation view of compound area northwest of Pueblo Grande platform mound (above) TRIBAL PERSPECTIVES ON THE HOHOKAM Donald Bahr, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus, Arizona State University The archaeologists’ name for the principal pre-European culture of southern Arizona is Hohokam, a word they adopted from the O’odham (formerly Pima-Papago). I am not sure which archaeologist first used that word. It seems that the first documented but unpublished use is from 1874 or 1875 (Haury 1976:5). In any case, since around then archaeologists have used their methods to define and explain the origin, development, geographic extent, and end of the Hohokam culture. This article is not about the archaeologists’ Hohokam, but about the stories and explanations of past peoples as told by the three Native American tribes who either grew from or replaced the archaeologists’ Hohokam on former Hohokam land. These are the O’odham, of course, but also the Maricopa and Yavapai. The Maricopa during European times (since about 1550) lived on lands previously occupied by the Hohokam and Patayan archaeological cultures, and the Yavapai lived on lands of the older Hohokam, Patayan, Hakataya, Salado, and Western Anasazi cultures – to use all of the names that have been used, sometimes overlappingly, for previous cultures of the region. The Stories The O’odham word huhugkam means “something that is used up or finished.” The word consists of the verb huhug, which means “to be used up or finished,” and the suffix “-kam,” which means “something that is this way.” Huhug is generally, and perhaps only, used as an intransitive, not a transitive, verb.

  • Artist Tlisza Jaurique
    Artist Tlisza Jaurique OutsidersPre-visit Class Withinroom Activity Tlisza Jaurique [TLEE zah HOWD Ree Khee] has two homes: her old family home in south Phoenix and another near New York City. When she was a child, Tlisza’s grandmother would tell her about the family’s experiences in Mexico and of their difficult journey to the United States. They traveled and worked through Texas and Arizona mining towns before finally settling in south Phoenix. Her grandmother was from the Nahua and Yaqui people. The Yaqui are a Native American tribe who live in the Sonoran Desert of northern Mexico. Tlisza’s grandmother also called herself a “Toltec,” an ancient Mesoamerican word for artist, and passed this idea on to her granddaughter. Tlisza calls herself “Mexica” [Meh SHEE Kah] after the people of the central valley of Mexico who speak the Nahuatl language. “Mexica” is also a name for many Indigenous people of Mexico. Tlisza also calls herself “Postmodern,” which means she is a person who questions who we are and how we live. Traditional Mexican celebrations, such as the Day of the Dead and the Feast Day of the Virgin of Guadalupe are important events in Tlisza’s life. She was brought up to believe that people need to show respect for animals and the environment because each thing can have a spirit. One way to show respect is to create special places by setting up altars (offrendas) and little niches (nichos) in the home. Tlisza always has seen herself as an “outsider.” She believed that she was from a culture “other” than the dominant Anglo culture while growing up in Phoenix.
