On and immediately adjacent to a reservation area of approxiiiiately 16 million acres in northeastern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico/and southern Utah, nearly 50,000 Navajos make their home. Sheep raising has been the main occupation of these people for well over a century. After years of continued overgrazing, the land has become badly eroded and will not support a sheep industry of sufficient size to maintain the constantly growing Navajo population. The number of mature sheep and goats on the reservation has been reduced to about 550,000 head, but the total number of stock, in- cluding horses and cattle, is still considerably in excess of the carrying capacity of the range, according to estimates of the Soil Conservation Service, of the United States Department of Agriculture.

By Dr. Washington Matthews. § I. The art of weaving, as it exists among the Navajo Indians of New Mexico and Arizona, possesses points of great interest to the stu- dent of ethnography. It is of aboriginal origin ; and while European art has undoubtedly modifled it, the extent and nature of the foreign influence is easily traced. It is by no means certain, still there are many reasons for supposing, that the Navajos learned their craft from the Pueblo Indians, and that, too, since the advent of the Spaniards; yet the pupils, if such they be, far excel their masters to-day in the beauty and quality of their work.

  • Soapstone Pewter Casting
    Pewter Spoon - 15th Century, England Materials Used Soapstone Lead-free Pewter Tools Used Wood carving tools Saw, Chisel, Hammer Jeweler’s tools Modeling clay Sanding board Dremel rotary tool Electric Hot-Pot Introduction This is my first attempt at a soapstone mold for pewter spoons. The goal of this mold was to produce a usable spoon mold that has interchangeable mold sections for different spoon knops (finials). This was modeled after many typical mid to late medieval English spoons such as that in Figure 1. Figure 1 – c15th century English Spoon; pewter; the shank ending in a diamond point; maker's mark in the bowl. (British Museum, Summary MCM3563) Mid to late medieval English spoons typically shared similar characteristics: fig-shaped bowl and a hexagonal handle (seen in Figure 1). The knop, or finial, of the spoon varied greatly by time and area. The typical pewter mix found at this time was 97% tin, 1.65% lead and 1.42% copper. These spoons may have been made in a variety of mold types but evidence exists stone molds being used. Creating a usable mold for the spoon dish was going to be tricky and I only wanted to do it once. I resolved to make a multi-useful mold that had an interchangable section to allow for different knops. For this project, I used soaptone to create a registered 4-part mold. I worked the mold with a large variety of tools, including dremel, wood working and jewelers tools and sandpaper. I used an electric melting pot to cast lead-free (98% tin, .5% copper and 1.5% bismuth) pewter I had considerable difficulty in getting the dish to fully fill as well as with some weak spots in the handles.
