Carr Land Company, 257 Main Street FAMOUS PAINTINGS BEING PRESERVED Tiie Noted Navajo Samd Works! Made Sale for Posterity Gallup, N. M., July 14.—The famous | sand pamtmgs of the Navajos have been preserved for posterity,.and the old Indian prophecy of “The Ones,” that when all the sand paint- ings ¢ forgotten and all religious chants die out, the end of the world wili come, ca e’ laid aside in the minds of those who believe in it, for the.time being, at least. For the sand paintings have be transferred by artists to the walle of the Fotel Navajo, recently dedi- cated here. In placing the paintings on the walls the artists were particu- lar not to depart in the slightest de- El gree from the original paintings made | emi- | by “White Singer” and other nent chiefs. In the art of the Navajos, painting, music, the dance, poetry and the drama are indivisible and all are the expression of religion. The medi- cine man is high priest, physiclan, singer, dancer and sets the stage for | no mean drama. He depends upon his memory for every detail and teaches the cult in turn to his follow- ers. The legend reads that when “The Holy Ones” gave the ceremonies to man, the priests were enjoined to memorize them and destroy the origi- nals. their falling into sacrilegious hands, but principally to write them on the hearts of living men. They were therefore made in color- ed sand and destroyed the same day they were made. Thus both paint- ings and charts passed on from gen- eration to generation, changing gradu- ally and many of them fading from the memory of even the oldest priests. | Thus many Indian medicine men were called upon to assist in furnish- | ing the true paintings that remained in their memories, and these were checked by Sam Day Jr, of St. Mi- chaels, an authority on Navajo cus- toms, who contributed of the paintings and euperintended the work, so that no detail was overlook- | ed. These paintings, all of the Sacred Rituals of the Navajo, are not intend- ed to be pictorial, but every figure, every line and every dot is a symbol. By the use of symbols only, their painter priests appealed to the ima- | Holy | This was done, not only to avoid | ond in religious importance is the pic- ture of the "Ascension of Dinae-e-di- ginl” or “Young Holy One." Among the other sand pictures, now | painted on the walls of the hotel are those symbolizing ‘“The Clouds,” “The Arrow (‘eremnny," “The Eagle Cere- mony," ** ' “The Earth Mother," “The Pollon Boy," and "The Harvest Beetle.” When the Navajo tribe heard that the sand pictures were to be transfer- red and perpetuated they insisted on dedicating the hote! with the ritual of | their race and performed the ritual of “The Blessing of the House,” | “In a previous ceremony, the evil spirits had been thrown out and the | ritual contained no words of any evil | or unlucky thing or spirit. Instead all | that is good and beautiful was invited | to take possession of the dwelling and | its occupants and leave no room for €vil spirits to return. The initial chant | sung during he procession of the Medicine Men was an invocation to ?h(‘ “Unnamed God.” He was peti- [ tioned to bless rot only the house, but all its occypants and all that pertained [to it as far as the mountains on the | [ four sides of it. Plaintings Blessed Ttk paintings were blessed with a | special ceremony, the procession going | | from picture to picture, stopping for | the leaders to eprinkle each picture | with the sacred corn pollon. After these particular blessings | were invoked, a number of other | chants were sung and the medicine men sprinkled the meal from the sand | pictures over the bullding and the | spectators and to *“the four corners | of the Earth.” The remalinder of the sand was placed in buckskin bags and couriers rode forth to places remote | from the gatherings of men, where they could hear “The Echo” and there | buried the bags.
