  • I visited Chaco Canyon this past fall and was talking with a ranger there, and he said when this solstice dance happens you can hear it echo throughout the whole canyon. He said it's pretty magical to hear it...I believe him.

  • ah i miss dancing this, but wonderful job you guys!

  • They need to be sent straight to vegas .. come get your ticket!!!! Oh wait, this isn't so you think you can dance. ;)

  • @saksikafa It's the buffalo dance. It's basically to honor the buffalo for what its done. now the ZUNI inparticular, im not sure for their reason. but in my tribe, they dress like this to sorta play the role of the animal, if that makes sense.

  • can someone tell me why do they dress up like this? is this also a shamanism and some kinda ritual? and what is the purpose of this dance?... i really wanna learn about it.. tnks

  • btw..tha last buffalo..juz dnt luk right ha ga

  • humbling beauty

  • A sacred priviledge to witness, I do not know what I am, I have never known my mother or father, I am a man, that's all, I wish all were like me that way, my mother is the earth and the sky is my father

  • @laffy911 shut up....dnt b hatin on pueblos juz cuz yu ain't 1!

  • @505twix I understand, this way they remain sacred, just like catholics consider the bread and wine to be body and blood of Christ,.....but i agree with ya this is AWESOME!!! CUACUALTZIN(BEAUTIFUL)!!! = )
