I am a Tibetan Buddhist who was Blessed to live in Zuni back in early 90's & worked for the Division of Alcoholism. I feel the Zuni & Hopi are the 2 Tribes who are most like Tibetans. And from my understanding, the Zuni language is more like Hopi than it resembles the languages of the other 18 Pueblos. My dad was part Yankton. Dakota, to me, seems to a few similarities to Japanese! I feel the Hopi "Time of The Great Purification" is upon us. I now live in the Sacred 4 Corners region, a few miles from Mesa Verde.

National Geographic's Human Genome Project results for my Mom (a mestiza from El Salvador) descended from an ancestral group that split into three branches 10,000-20,000 years ago. Her ancestral group crossed the Bering Straits from Siberia and traveled along West Coast all the way to Central America and beyond. Some members continued on as far as the Amazon Forest! Proven DNA trail. The other two branches, one went to Korea, the other to northern Japan, probably linked to modern Mongolians and Ainu. This happened more than 10,000-20,000 years ago. (Even today, there are Yakut tribals in Siberia.) And of course, other groups/tribes spread out and settled elsewhere. My mom's ancestral group had to cross modern-day Kazakhstan to reach Siberia and left DNA imprint there along the journey according to the Human Genome Project. Tribal map of North America is amazing. The main tribes in Central America became known as the Mayans.

In the 1960s my (white) grandmother would visit Zuni three or four times a year to trade with them. She would load up a pickup truck (and sometimes a trailer) and bring things like clothing, appliances, furniture, and other needed items and trade for jewelry. (The jewelry was for her own enjoyment. She never sold or tried to make profit from the trades. This was before Native American jewelry was as popular as it is today.) She knew many families, and knew what each needed. She knew the kids' clothing sizes, who needed coats or shoes or jeans, whose refrigerator was broken, and so on. She'd collect up a load of goods (furniture and appliances from garage sales and thrift stores, clothing from Sears or Wards) head out for a day of visiting everyone. I went with her once when I was about 10, and still remember how glad the Zuni folks were to see her and how welcoming they were to her and her grandkids. Peter, you delved a bit into the level of patriotism among the Zuni people...one thing that stood out to me when I was there in the mid-60s was nearly every house had a tapestry hanging on the living room wall with a portrait of JFK. He was highly respected/revered among the families we visited that day.

@lokahi27 6 месяцев назад

@rhymeister That is far from the truth. Where did you hear or read that? Interesting as it sounds, the Hawaiian people most likely migrated from Easter Island. That is another theory, but the closest to our ancestry. Taiwanese if not mistaken are rogue Chinese ( which they don't like being compared to the Chinese), same as Okinawans don't like to be compared to the Japanese. Although they share the same ancestry, my wife is half Okinawan and says it's an insult to compare.

The Western tribes faced less issues with that than the ones in the east. I live in Oklahoma and the tribes forced to move here faced a lot of trauma. It's all due to geography, being closer to Europe where most of the colonizers came from, but Natives fought each other, e.g. the Cherokee and the Creeks were fighting quite a lot over centuries and in fact the Cherokees saved the Tennessee Volunteers from being defeated by the Creeks AKA the Muscogee, and then what happens. The top guy of the Tenn Volunteers, Andrew Jackson, stabs the Cherokees in the back after he becomes president by forcing them to walk to Oklahoma in dead winter which is called "The Trail of Tears".

Wow, thank you! My grandmother on my father's side was Zuni from the Zuni Pueblo Reservation. Unfortunately, my father left when I was three and I never saw him again, nor met any of his side of the family. My mom always told me my grandmother was Zuni, but until I had my DNA tested and it came back almost a quarter Native Amercian from the New Mexico/Colorado region, did I know it was actually true. So, I sadly do not know any of my Zuni ancestors or relatives, and even though I was born in NM and lived there until I was 10, I've yet to visit Zuni. But I will one day... And even though I'm only partially Zuni genetically, I hold the Zuni people and their land in my heart, and I like to imagine that the ancestors know my name. So, thank you again! I only just found your channel yesterday, and watched your wonderful video on the Lakota Pine Ridge Reservation, which was fascinating!

@@jakehall8305 So interesting... thank you for commenting. Having a DNA test done is like working out a puzzle. It's fascinating to study the genetic links and regions that a DNA test can uncover. I've looked a bit into people looking to see if their family origin stories of Indigenous ancestry are indeed true. Often, people are dismayed and disappointed to find they do not carry the indigenous genes they were always told they did. However, genetics doesn't necessarily work that way, it is possible for siblings to have different genetic percentages, say from a grandparent. One sibling could inherit 25% from a grandparent, and another sibling could only inherit 10% and even none at all. Genetics is like shaking a pepper shaker on a tray of potatoes, not every potato is going to get the same amount of pepper falling down on it. So, 17% is actually a large amount of DNA from your grandma coming down to you. Even though you weren't told of her ancestry, maybe you could think of her wanting you to know the truth when you felt drawn to take the test.

With this country now entering civil war, I'm selling my property, in the south,. My many white friends I know have been so good to me. It breaks my heart so many are going to die over lies. We all need to return to our roots and homes. All of us to reconnect with OUR truth before it's too late for us. I plan to keep watching all of your work to help me return home properly. Ty for your work. I cant say enough positive things this has reawoken in me. I know that's not an actual word. 😆😆 The enemies don't want this available to us. Where it goes to die. I don't think so.

Wow the Zuni land looks beautiful. I only been there once for the Shalako ceremony. Which by the way is awesome to see. They dont allow cameras or recordings of such ceremonies. Very cool tribe. If ever get the chance to witness a Pueblo feast day. Its a sight to see their dances and ceremonies. Again no cameras or recording are allowed. Same in my tribe (Navajo) the women own the home and is passed down to the daughters. Usually the oldest. As Navajo i have friends and family who are Pueblo. We all joke together. Even my grandparents taught us to bring mutton or lamb leg to the Pueblo home that invite us to eat. I guess this is how it was done way back in the day. Like the 1800s. We still do that when we visit friends in Jemez Pueblo and Laguna Pueblo for their feast days.

I taught 5th grade in Zuni in the '80's. Great to see your video and meet some Zunis. I recognize their sacred mesa, Do'Yallane. I hadn't known about the brother and sister in the Flood story; but I surmise what rocks represent the bro and sis: There are two tall columns on the northwest side facing Zuni village. Great to see the Mission again, in the central old town part. As the Zuni woman said, there are wonderful murals inside: They're of Zuni ceremonial katchinas... They were painted by a superb Zuni artist I knew. He also taught Zuni culture in the Zuni schools. Shalako is the biggest religious cultural Zuni festival of the year; happens in late Nov or early Dec. Respectful visitors are welcome. Zuni kids are actually supposed to stay up all night for Shalako. But if they nod off somewhere along, as they often do, that's fine. Zuni kids get the next day off from school. After Zuni I became a storytelling school librarian for Navajo. I'd still return to Zuni, for some gatherings, like Night Dances (happen in winter) and brought my visiting parents there, for a summer Rain Dance and Give Away. 'Keshi' (Hello in Zuni. Also was/is the Call name of their radio station: KSHI.

My mom is originally from Ramah, NM. It’s right next to the Zuni reservation. We’ve been to Zuni several times to buy jewelry in one of those shops at Zuni. I very much enjoyed exploring the area (I remember seeing those outdoors stoves). Peter, when you say there’s a special feeling in that area, I agree. I can’t quite place it but there is. My grandmother and aunt are buried in Ramah. My mom will be too. I love that area. Your videos are fantastic.

@keithbond9423 3 месяца назад

My dad was also born and raised in Ramah and my grandpa and his brothers had cattle ranches on the mountain just north of town. Considering most of the town is related, I'll bet we probably are. My dad was born in 1935 and left after high school to go to college. My grandparents moved to Mesa AZ in the 70s so we no longer have close relatives there, but more distant relatives still live there. I've been to Zuni a few times and love it. My mom and I went back again this past summer, first time in many years. We have a photo of my dad when he was about 5 yrs old or so holding the hand of an older Native American. I'm not sure if he was Zuni or Navajo since Ramah is wedged between both reservations. My grandpa did a lot of work for the Navajo tribe building and maintaining roads and wells and stuff. Great area and lovely cultures.

I don't think "Anasazi" was a mis-attribution. I think it was generally understood that the "Anasazi" were the ancestors of the Pueblo Indians. It's rather that the word "Anasazi" is Navajo for "ancient enemy", and that the modern Puebloan Indians don't want the term to be used any more. So, you're supposed to say "Ancient Puebloan" peoples.

Which makes it all the more interesting, from a linguistic perspective, that it's one of the more thriving Native American languages. A lot of the more obscure tribal tongues on this continent are gone from the earth forever or soon will be. As a linguistics geek, I appreciate a lot of things about Zuni. It does have a few features that are common in the area, but it's also got some really wild features too. Neat language. It's got a beautiful sound to it too.

That doesn't mean it's not related to other languages, it's just that all its close relatives have gone extinct so its precise relationship to other languages it's impossible to determine. It'd be sort of like if Spanish was the only romance language left on Earth and Portuguese, French, Italian etc were all extinct. It'd sort of be its own thing.

@@patrickday4206 it just means that it lives on a long, lonely branch on the family tree of all languages. Since linguists can't see back in time (especially with languages that didn't have a written form until recently) they end up just treating those long branches as separate trees altogether. They're almost certainly related to other languages if you go far back enough, but you can't. You could sorta draw an analogy to Korean, which is the world's most spoken language isolate, or Basque, the second most spoken one. In both cases, they have a few (not very many!) similarities to neighboring languages (Korean to Chinese and Japanese, Basque to Spanish and French) but since they're otherwise so vastly different, its impossible to determine how much of the similarities are due to contact between the speakers of these languages and how much are due to a distant relationship.
