Corn grinding for Wall Kiva Shalako house. There is nothing to hide for dis event. open to the public. We aren't da only tribe dat grinds corn. The house is owned by my aunt, kiva group is my father's group. I posted wit permission from all parties involved. No I refuse to take it down since there are no katchinas or anything else in da video. It's a video of ladies enjoying our heritage and nothing wrong wit dat. All da negative comments usually come from people who don't take part. Either way, you have a choice to view it or not. Watch the video posted by SocQuest, Zuni Pueblo. Now dats goin to far, ya'll go bother dat person now.

    Just imagine that sound of the stone grinding calling our Grandmothers,Mothers,Sisters to bless us and to see how happy we are that Our ways will never change. As we say in our tongue "Nei'drah-Thank You",I'm Pueblo myself. Never let Your ways of culture disappear,this is who we are always and forever,pass it down to the next generation that way they will be on that right path with the sun.

  • Thanks for sharing. very impressed, so glad you're keeping traditions up. Only a few women are grinding now days we grind so we can continue our women duties to our ancestors.
