Description
In this strange and wonderful book, thirty elders of the ancient Hopi tribe of Northern Arizona - a people who regard themselves as the first inhabitants of America - freely reveal the Hopi worldview for the first time in written form. The Hopi kept this view a secret for countless centuries, and anthropologists have long struggled to understand it. Now they record their myths and legends, and the meaning of their religious rituals and ceremonies, as a gift to future generations.
