An original, realistic fiction elementary school slide presentation (Part 2 of 2) of the life of a young girl named Takala, a Hopi Pueblo Native American, at the turn of the 20th Century, which shows village life, aspects of culture and religion to elementary students using rare, online archival photographs taken from that time.

1. We know He has come, because
the Eastern Star has come up.
Our Crow Clan is in charge of looking for the Bahana
who will unite all men and bring us new Teachings
to teach us all how to live in peace.
.

2. This my little
sister, my mother,
my aunts and
some more family.
We love to laugh
a lot and make
jokes.

3. They are my Grandmother
and Grandfather. She is
holding a traditional earthen,
painted pot which we Hopi
are well-known
for making.
It is full of symbolism of
our bird clan: the
Crow.

4. This is my older sister holding her little baby. She got
married when she was 16, which is normal among the Hopi.
She has a nice name. It is Kuwan-yauma, which means
"butterfly showing beautiful wings" in the Hopi language.
We girls often get our
hair braided in pigtails.
Babies have their heads
flattened in a cradleboard.

5. Most Hopi men,
like my uncle
here, have bangs,
tapered hair on
the sides and let
their hair grow
long in the back.
My brothers
and sisters
ride donkeys
with their
playmates.

6. Here, my cousin, Yoki,
which means “rain” is
wearing a dark manta,
a print and fringed
shawl, a woven blanket
shawl, a bead necklace
with an open-hoop
pendant, and hair in
side whirls.
We often go barefoot.

7. Inside an old, abandoned ceremonial
Kiva, a weaver weaves a blanket,
while my friend watches.

8. We have to pray to the Great Spirit to bring us rain. We have
special ceremonies twice a year to pray for rain at the times of
the Winter Solstice, which begins December 21st
, and the Summer
Solstice, on June 21st
.
You can see this Hopi man, way above his farmland
on the Second Mesa, looking atop an adobe house.
He is worried about rain. You can see he is
wearing leggings, a loose shirt, earrings, a
headband, and moccasins.
