So fascinating! Many years ago, growing up in New Mexico, I asked some of my Dine friends about the Anasazi. I had noticed that they seemed repulsed by the ruins. They said that those were evil places, but did not explain further. Thank you for this explanation.
He's covered in other videos that the Navajo don't like to talk about "evil" because they believe to talk about evil gives it power. That's why most white people don't know the truth about the Anasazi.
@@thechiefwildhorse4651so say the archaeologists who have been proved wrong many times over. You may not know any Dine history IDK but the oral of the Dine say nothing of coming from the north 800 years ago.
It's not archeology genius, it's genetic testing and genealogy testing. We cal tell migration paths from DNA. Maybe learn some shit before being confidently incorrect.

Stick with it and you’ll discover LOTS more about true history.. like who the real slavers here in America were. There’s no other good answer for the reason African-American slaves not being able to be linked to the white Christian and instead they find out they were slaves to American-Indians. They would “hobble” the Africans by cutting off their feet and sometimes feeding them their own body parts. Then the “colonizers” from Europe came (Spain,Portugal and Italy/NOT the “blue eyed devil” we’ve all been led to believe. Ask yourself,who owns our school system and newspapers and all of media and WHEN did they purchase it all. What do they REALLY look like. They are hidden within the inner circle (of the 3 rings) This is how everything can be blamed on the Anglo-European. All the lies are for this day and age when “they” who own and run everything can take out the TRUE 10 scattered tribes.. Gods beloved,Gods true children. You can’t see a difference,it’s in the blood. 🧬
I wish I could spend forever learning from this man. He knows so much, and not just about Anasaza. I am old in years, but I feel like a child when I listen to him talk about things. He knows so much, and I know so little.
That's quite a claim. He is dene. If you are Dine (and he is) you are taught from very young not to lie. It might just be a matter of him having a different world view than you have. That's okay. It's not right or wrong to have a different world view, and it doesn't mean he is lying just because his world view doesn't match up with yours. It doesn't mean that you are lying either. The two of you just see things differently. If you think he is lying, it is on you to prove that he is. So tell me why you think he's lying?
I find this fascinating. I was one of a group of people the last year that visitors were allowed into the Great Kiva at Chaco Canyon for summer solstice. It was an amazing experience to see the light shine into the space as the sun rose. I tried to imagine what it might have been like when the kiva was in use. I never imagined that it could have such an evil history. I put much more faith in the traditional stories than I do in the supposed "truths" told to us by mainstream archeologists. It is important that these stories are preserved.

This guy doesn't know what he's talking about. The "Anasazi " were long gone when the Navajo wandered into Hopi Land. They were scared of our food because all they ate was raw meat. He's probably trying to lay a foundation for claiming our food, deities, culture, and land.

I have an MA in Anthropology. I'm an electrician by trade and familiar with building techniques, survival, agriculture, and some so-called primitive technologies. Simply by observing the building locations toward the end of the Anasazi period you can tell many were living in fear of someone and something horrific. It's common sense.

@@CoolAF100 I agree some things should be kept secret indeed. Because there are those in life that abuse things they’re given so it’s best to keep it a secret. On the other hand some things revealed can be helpful if received properly. You’re right though and like it says In Deuteronomy 29:29 the secret things belong to God then goes on to talk about the things that are revealed are for us and our children etc.
Thank you. The Creator’s Holy People are defeating wicked giants every day. Grateful of the Navajo to share their experiences. Humanity shares this in common and now we know.
Wow! U r so sensitive. Its good that by just seeing the pics u r getting a negative feeling. I wish I could also feel like that as its an important skill in many ways.

Thank you, Elder Wally, for taking the time to share this info. A group of friends went about 10 years ago. We were in awe of the structures but felt no beauty or presence of goodness. One of the members kept picking up rocks to give to each of us but was scolded for it. With you sharing this info, it comes together, all the bits and pieces we've heard over the years. Blessings to you and your family always.
Thank you you guys,I’m glad to hear the stories from people who actually know what they are talking about instead of the people who just guess and come up up with their own version instead of talking to the people who have been there for a thousand years
Stories are like a barrel of a gun, they just guide you the right way, if the teller wants you to go the right way, and if you agree.. You are like the bullet, you must use your own powder to fulfill your own momentum into the direction of your favorite story!

Thee documentary you refer to also mentioned a connection with a band of Aztec from meso america moving north making the Anasazi their victims What are your thoughts
Interesting! It seems to me it matters in this beautiful culture how things are spoken of. We too easily take violence as entertainment. These people deliberately choose beauty and good so do not lightly speak of evil, except when a wise person sees a value as our kind teacher here does. The context matters and in the gentle tone it’s a living context. My impression of “ repressed” stories, here where someone is generously showing it, is that these gentle cultures here in the southwest, whose perspective is priceless, learned humility and kindness and simplicity and respect out of suffering. How priceless to be allowed to kearn a little from the raw facts history and also the way it is told. How can we afford to not cherish this perspective? I’m afraid of anyone or anything wanting to cash in on such things. Save oak flat. The worlds largest surface copper deposit can’t possibly be worth more than this Wisdom.
@@tangelohallllc9882 I've been watching many stories of tribes and small towns recently. Generally speaking murder and genocide are accepted in a closed system even if certain elements of that society wish it hadn't come to that. Once the possibility of retribution dissolves to time the generation of regret passes. Today we engage an open systen governed by laws that may develop into a country wide closed system. Lets hope the darkness doesn't win.
Fascinating history. I watch hikers on UA-cam who come across all the broken pottery and ruins and they have no idea about this history and meaning. Ive always wondered and im so glad i found this channel.
@@teradrew7555 The history and meaning of the pottery and ruins wouldn't be found here. The history belongs to the Pueblo tribes who have lived in these areas and moved to where they are now. People can come through and live in these ruins and they have. The ruins were inhabited by others after the people who built them left. Even Pueblo tells of people who came and brought ceremonies and traditions they didn't agree with so they left and moved on leaving the newcomers behind. Chaco was a place many tribes came to and exchanged materials and traditions that's why you see parrot feathers and shells in many dances today. Each tribe took what was deemed valuable to them and left what wasn't. With all respect this man wouldn't know the meaning behind things that belonged to other tribes and clans.
Growth is always a gift imparted by suffering meant for our benefit, if we will receive it. I live in Dine territory not far from the Indian Highway. Much of the same style of Baal-like ritualistic entertainment reminds me of many Dine and other native warning stories. Thank you for teaching the history. Only word of mouth and stone tell tales in the end
sometimes, it's alright if you reject suffering, and stuff it up the posterior of whomever offers it to you. pack it in there good where it belongs. free west papua, 62 years of silent genocide for u.s. gold mining.
Lived in Arizona for fifty years. Love our land. As for the video, I just want to say it explains much about the feelings we get sometimes. Thanks so much.
Wow, this is fascinating. When I was young, there was a summer gathering with drumming circle where I live, I remember being brought to tears listening to the beautiful sound of the drumming and the voices. Not a drop of Native ancestry in my history, but that doesn't mean something in the universal language of music didn't speak directly into my spirit. I feel kindred, if nothing else. Thank you for sharing your history.
Knowing what little I know of the Navajo people when I read the history of Chaco Canyon that wrongfully said there was famine so they started to cannibalize one another I knew that was a flat out lie. Living up so high and hidden in the cliffs was obviously a defensive position for your people to take and surely not an easy way of life. Thank you for the true history.
Yes - the Anasazi probably came from Mexico (Aztecs) and found a people ripe to be dominated and terrorized. The Anasazi used brutal acts of cannibalism and dismemberment that the Aztecs practiced. They cooked heads face up to bake the brains for dinner.
You are sir are a national treasure. Please keep making these videos... I lived in New Mexico for over 12 years and have visited Chaco many times. Altnough it is impressive architecturally, there is an overwhelming dark energy present. Most non-Native people I've talked to thought it was this great spiritual place, but I've always felt very uneasy entering that canyon. It was an undeniable feeling that I cant say I've experienced anywhere else. I would carry that feeling sometimes for days aftering leaving. The prevailing theories about Chaco culture never made sense to me. There was so much not explained. It wasn't until years, and several visits, later that I learned some of the real history of the ruins through some of my Jemez friends. One friend told me they "were messing with things they should not be messing with." I heard that they were trying to change time and the weather and that they had to be destroyed. Most of my Native friends would say very little if anything about that place. That always made me wonder. I also learned from friends who worked for the US Forrest Service about some bizzare archeological and forensic findings including bones, etc. Most of this information is not available in books or on the internet. But, thanks to men like Mr. Brown we can know more of the truth.
There was evidence in an article about 10 years back that claimed there was evidence in the bone piles of human sacrifice. Scratches on human bones and so I think Wallys oral history is truer than what we learned.
Recently, archeologists are trained not to see human sacrifice, even taught that "there is no evidence" for it. Evidence and sites are reinterpreted, so that even things with NO other logical explanation are reburied academically. I know of one place which now is said to have been a used for rituals involved in treaties between people groups. But what had been found there decades before, showed that children and infants had been sawn into pieces before ritual burial. Evil.
That feeling of DARKNESS or uneasiness comes from your own dark history of the United States. They were masters of time and space and marked celestial events. Not trying to change time or nature. That was done by biliganas (Caucasians) and is still being done today. The Cern experiment has messed up the timeline and global warming is driving cloud seeding, trying to control the weather. We don't believe that Caucasians should be destroyed because they're doing that, so what on earth would make you think that Navajos would want to destroy a people for thinking different? Friends who worked for the US Forest Service?? Sounds like BS...pardon my french. The national database on artifacts excavated from these sites proves that their was never any ritualistic sacrifices or prisoners held at ANY of these pueblos. PROVE ME WRONG
I remember watching a documentary from the 90s (I think--could have been early 2000s) where an archaeologist had found evidence that the Anasazi, in at least one ruin, had practiced cannibalism. It caused quite a bit of controversy at the time, but since then there have been more discoveries, plus listening to the oral traditions, that seem to validate those findings.
they didn't practice cannibalism, they were cannibalized. 'somehow' a dimensional portal was opened and 6 fingers/6 toes foot giants human flesh eaters came to this world and start the feast.
The problem is Dine/Navajo-Pueblo animosity going back to ancient times confounds the issue and complicating it was a clueless archeologist in the early 20th Century using the name "Anasazi" to name the ancient culture of the area who were clearly a Pueblo people and not "outsiders" as the name implies especially as they were there long before the Navajo/Dine peoples arrived. So when cannibalism was discovered in the "Anasazi" culture, a backlash ensued against the perceived bias of both Western and Navajo/Dine perspectives. But as the documentary shows, the cannibalism did not originate with that ancient Pueblo culture. It makes its appearance around the 10th Century CE and disappears after the 12th Century which fits in with the old tales. So the "Anasazi" that most people think of were actually ancient Pueblo peoples living there for thousands of years and the "Anasazi" of the Dine tales were an outside group from the South (most likely Mexico) who dominated the area for a short time and were eventually destroyed.
Once again I am grateful for the lesson. I was one of the misinformed people who believed that they were a wise and great people (the Anasazi). I'm glad to know the truth behind the misconception so I can help educate others.
Had a beautiful Dine family pick me up in the desert today when it was 100 degrees. They were coming the back way from Alamo towards To’hajiilee. I lost count how many Pueblos passed me by.
It is a worthy thing to preserve such wisdom that I would not hear - but I have ears to hear, and now we are in a new time. A time when one voice may share knowledge through generations.
This has the ring of truth. I grew up in Colorado and Arizona and used to love exploring. Coming across ruins was commonplace. At some, the despair, the horror, dread..and the uncountable loss I would feel near some of them made my insides clench..such imagery ran through my mind. I have profound respect for what the ancestors of he contemporary nations endured.
At Pueblo Pintado I noticed that the construction was similar to what you pointed out with large stones then layers of small stones and large stones and so forth. Also traditionalist stayed away from the ruins and said something about ghost sickness.
Thank you, Grandfather Wally. What you tell us are always lessons for us to learn. I greatly appreciate your explanations, and those are difficult to dispute. Also, it sounds like you are having some breathing difficulties. You are in my prayers. You are a true treasure of the Dine, and although I am not of your People, I have nothing but the deepest and most sincere respect for you, and for the Dine. May the Great Spirit provide your needs in abundance.
I find it to such a sublimely familiar sensation, listening to your words. It feels like a lesson from a elder family member did as a child. I suppose that's your job. I believe you do it well, and I believe you. Your videos are turning my world upside down and I think its good. Does anyone else feel more at peace within themselves after listening to this man?
I can remember going on a field trip to Chaco when I was a kid. It made me ill but I didn't know why. I went back there about 20 yrs ago. From that experience, I know there was darkness and evil there. Your history explains my experiences. Thank you
This explains a lot about why the cliff dwellers lived up so high and why their homes were not easy to get to. Thank you for the video, I had never heard this before and it explains so much about the different building styles as well.
Thankyou for your explanation of cliff dwellers. Now only I understood why they stayed so much up on the cliff so as not to be attacked by the Anasazi.
🇦🇺 Thank you so much for revealing this rich heritage of your people. It’s so important for you to document this for the following generations. You are a true inspiration. 🕊🙏
thank you for making this video. im navajo, and unfortunately im not really in touch with my culture. i only know a few things, so these videos really help me.
Growing up. Being Navajo my grandparents and my mother told us never to go near ancient ruins. Not to touch or play around them. There is evil and bad spirits there. In Navajo there alot of Taboos about our people going near ruins. My grandparents were kinda upset my two aunts married into pueblo families. Because their ways were totally different from ours but eventually they became to deal with it.
This man is a keeper of such important information, especially at these end times. Thankyou for facilitating these accounts for posterity. I hope you keep them in a very afe place.
Maney years ago I traveled to Chaco . Perhaps it is cursed. With in a year the life I had lived was destroyed. I traveled very far away . changed ever dark way I was involved . I was sorry and changed . Today I begin to comprehend how a life of peace is to be lived. Thank you for sharing. Means a lot.
You’ve probably heard this before…but we need to have these stories written down, translate your historyical stories and write them for us, and please, continue to teach your Navaho Language!
It is Good that the old, real histories have found a way to stay with us. I am Inuvialuit first peoples, and I am NOT happily assimilated. I continuously seek out stories from ALL Citizens of All Cultures of Turtle Island. We are not gone, extinct, detritus or even replaceable.
Indeed, have you spoken to the European tribes? The Welsh, the Frisians etc? There are plenty of unassimilated groups of people that would love to talk to you about your perspectives
Yes but if you want to know about ancient Puebloan people it might be more accurate to consult present Puebloan people not a tribe that just recently took over their lands.
I just stumbled upon your channel and feel blessed by your stories. Thank you for passing on your stories that might otherwise be lost. I have learned so much from you, and thank you from my heart & soul for your teachings.
It's an honor to see and hear from this man. Before this continent was stolen from its true inhabitants, their country was radiant and amazing. Thank U
The Navajo stole it from several other “tribes”. No one owns it. It gets occupied for awhile. All people have been migrating all over the planet since our beginning,
Thank you for your teachings, Elder. I’m learning a lot. You are an excellent teacher. This is great information. Is a shame they don’t teach this stuff in schools, they only teach lies. You should write books about all this for future generations so is not forgotten. Thank you again Honorable Elder.
Thank you Teacher .... this explains my headaches among the cliffs and "kivas". Being white, i only felt pain and deep suffering. Thank you for the historical context. There are people who "hear" in every culture but we have become closed off in sharing the sacred. Thank you for your knowledge.
thank you for the teachings, i have a tendency to believe what you are saying. i am grateful to learn. i had s roommates who were navajo and one who was hopi the navajo, then my other was mexican. i lived and played with native children in their homes and outside when i was a child myself in the moutains of montana. my roomates lived in farmington, new mexico area. i loved them because we played hiked and did almost every everything together. i dreamed as a child to live with the indigenous people. my dad said said i had almostmore native in me, because of my actions home erc..t was accused by people that i was a native child, when living in a foster home, it made me happy they'. when i was born my hair was pitch black and skin olive the hosp, wondered if i had indigenous in me,. then a straight line medicine man who's name two trees told my friend he believed i had native in me. i feel love for you and grateful if i do have indigenous in me, i feel honored i do.
This video, your whole channel, is incredible. Please continue to make these videos. This wisdom and these teachings and this history is available no where else, and it is so vital to understanding the continent we inhabit, and it's native people's history. Fantastic work, what an honor to have the opportunity to hear his words. May he be well and live many more healthy happy years, and his family as well.
It’s is so important to get the word out. These “never talked to a native” scholars tell the story in such a way that makes no sense. The lands and remaining dwellings/ cliff dwellings tell a different story than they preach. What you say makes sense.
This dovetails neatly with controversial archeological findings that Anasazi human remains show characteristic signs of butchery and cannibalism. These signs appear late in the history of the cliff dwellers after a migration of people from Aztec territory in the south, as I recall.
Very excellent lessons from a wise honor worthy teacher. I think it is so important that we who come here seeking really pay deep attention and really listen with 100% of our attention on this elders words. He is speaking his peoples truth, he is walking in beauty, we are blessed to be receiving this.I think the audience must be mindful not to return to our busy modern world and proceed as per usual., we either carelessly dissipate his energy or we can choose to radiate it outward, ripples in water, each a part of the other part, one whole organism all connected.
The history of the Dine is fascinating. I have not heard before of the legend that the cliff dwellers and the Dine had merged and eradicated earlier slave-holding groups. That makes perfect sense and seems to fit with archaeological observations. Thank you.
The slave-holding people were not "earlier." They came from the south and enslaved the peoples who had been living in this southwest area for thousands of years. Their reign of terror was only about 300 years.
It was NOT the dine ppl who eradicated, but their gods, the Navajo never take any responsibility of what the gods do, that's a big no no if they do...if they did they wouldn't be any better than those evil cannibals.
It would be wonderful if you could teach at schools within the NN. You are such an important historian and man of knowledge. You could do a few classes a day on the language, and a few on the ways and the history. Yah bless you for the videos you do for us all around the world.
Thank you sooooo much for this lesson! It explains so much about who these people were, the weird building styles, why I didn’t love Chaco Canyon, why my dreams were so weird there, why people won’t always talk about the Anasazi… now I have a million more questions.
@@michaelcharlesthearchangel but the navajo say they came from the east .. the koreans tried to invade japan in the time of the bushido and they met the "divine wind" kamikaze as did the spanish armada to our land .. there can be only one - highlander and he living on the cliffs perhaps / mac cloud - son of the clouds ?
My Dine friends call themselves Mongolian sheep herders, they are recent invaders to the SW with their brother tribe the Apache. If you want to know about the ancient ones ask the modern ones, the Hopi, Zuni and Acoma, they are the Anasazi.
@@SMiki55 But anasazi is a Navajo word, misapplied to Ancestral Pueblo People by a white archeologist around 100 years ago. I haven't heard anyone dispute that Hopi and Zuni descended from ancient Pueblo people, the speaker even said so in the video.
That two times I've been to Chaco Canyon I've had this strange feeling of dread and sadness I couldn't explain. This video was very enlightening. Thank you Wally..
I learned that the Anasazi were not well liked among their neighbors, to put it mildly. Don't know where I got that, but I have always been interested in archeology, so I picked it up somewhere. Seemed like archeologists tried their best to find other reasons for what they found, but it was like an Olympic sized stretch.
I have heard that about the Anasazi and what they did but you saying that about the Cliff Dwellers cleared up so much. It makes sense now. Thank you I wish he would write a book.
Thank you for sharing this information, I'm so glad to have found you. Is this what is currently called Chaco Canyon? (actually just read someone said yes in other comments) Do you know where the Anasazi came from?
Thank you for sharing your great wisdom and stories. And I hope that you continue to make these videos so that we can learn about these different cultures thank you so very much. You are like my older Uncle who used to tell beautiful stories. This kind of beautiful wisdom and information needs to be passed on and preserved. May God bless you with good health so that you can continue to give us your wonderful wisdom❤
Thank You for bringing to light some of the unanswered questions I have pondered! I always believed of a conquering people coming from Mexico or South America that had migrated into Arizona. Bringing with them their own "traditions" of slavery and even cannibalism and imposing their will upon the people. Perhaps first meeting each other through trade then finally through conquest. Generations would pass before the Anasazi were no more and that the people would again find their own freedoms. It also gives reason for the millions of shards I have seen throughout the Southwest! I'm a student of many disciplines and find the history of Native Americans fascinating!!! PEACE
What you do on this channel is very important to me and others, that unfortunately have spent much of our lives away from our home lands and family. You're videos help me feel more connected to the Dine. Thank you.
Finally, I get to hear a true history of the Anasazi. Even to this day, the ruins of the Anasazi are said to be a favorite haunt of numerous evil spirits/entities.
If you want to hear the "true" history it would be better to ask their direct descendants the Hopi, Zuni, Acoma, Tacoma etc and not Navajo who were their enemies.
So fascinating! Many years ago, growing up in New Mexico, I asked some of my Dine friends about the Anasazi. I had noticed that they seemed repulsed by the ruins. They said that those were evil places, but did not explain further. Thank you for this explanation.
Is this Chaco Canyon?
He's covered in other videos that the Navajo don't like to talk about "evil" because they believe to talk about evil gives it power. That's why most white people don't know the truth about the Anasazi.

@@CoolAF100 I agree some things should be kept secret indeed. Because there are those in life that abuse things they’re given so it’s best to keep it a secret. On the other hand some things revealed can be helpful if received properly. You’re right though and like it says In Deuteronomy 29:29 the secret things belong to God then goes on to talk about the things that are revealed are for us and our children etc.
The Sioux received visions to now share the future coming in the next age as a warning ⚠️.

Love hearing the language spoken unbroken. Please continue to have him speak to save this for the future. Blessings ✌️❤️
It's always interesting to listen to Wally speak about his people. Its very fascinating and enlightening.
What a beautiful language! I want to learn more about these amazing people!
I never went there but even seeing photos and videos of Chaco left me with a bad feeling. Thank you for helping me understand why!
Wow! U r so sensitive. Its good that by just seeing the pics u r getting a negative feeling. I wish I could also feel like that as its an important skill in many ways.

Thank you, Elder Wally, for taking the time to share this info. A group of friends went about 10 years ago. We were in awe of the structures but felt no beauty or presence of goodness. One of the members kept picking up rocks to give to each of us but was scolded for it. With you sharing this info, it comes together, all the bits and pieces we've heard over the years. Blessings to you and your family always.
Thank you you guys,I’m glad to hear the stories from people who actually know what they are talking about instead of the people who just guess and come up up with their own version instead of talking to the people who have been there for a thousand years
Stories are like a barrel of a gun, they just guide you the right way, if the teller wants you to go the right way, and if you agree.. You are like the bullet, you must use your own powder to fulfill your own momentum into the direction of your favorite story!
Because archeological evidence means guessing 😅
@@jonnybgoode7742 if people want to really know the history you gotta cross reference stories passed down or it is a lot of guess work and theory. After all, isn't a big part of a scientists job is to theorize and hypothesize?

My grandfather told similar stories about this subject, and he never told the stories in the house because of the evilness attached to what happened.
Interesting! It seems to me it matters in this beautiful culture how things are spoken of. We too easily take violence as entertainment. These people deliberately choose beauty and good so do not lightly speak of evil, except when a wise person sees a value as our kind teacher here does. The context matters and in the gentle tone it’s a living context. My impression of “ repressed” stories, here where someone is generously showing it, is that these gentle cultures here in the southwest, whose perspective is priceless, learned humility and kindness and simplicity and respect out of suffering. How priceless to be allowed to kearn a little from the raw facts history and also the way it is told. How can we afford to not cherish this perspective? I’m afraid of anyone or anything wanting to cash in on such things. Save oak flat. The worlds largest surface copper deposit can’t possibly be worth more than this

@@tangelohallllc9882 I've been watching many stories of tribes and small towns recently.
Generally speaking murder and genocide are accepted in a closed system even if certain elements of that society wish it hadn't come to that. Once the possibility of retribution dissolves to time the generation of regret passes.
Today we engage an open systen governed by laws that may develop into a country wide closed system.

Fascinating history. I watch hikers on UA-cam who come across all the broken pottery and ruins and they have no idea about this history and meaning. Ive always wondered and im so glad i found this channel.
@@teradrew7555 The history and meaning of the pottery and ruins wouldn't be found here. The history belongs to the Pueblo tribes who have lived in these areas and moved to where they are now. People can come through and live in these ruins and they have. The ruins were inhabited by others after the people who built them left. Even Pueblo tells of people who came and brought ceremonies and traditions they didn't agree with so they left and moved on leaving the newcomers behind. Chaco was a place many tribes came to and exchanged materials and traditions that's why you see parrot feathers and shells in many dances today. Each tribe took what was deemed valuable to them and left what wasn't.
With all respect this man wouldn't know the meaning behind things that belonged to other tribes and clans.
Growth is always a gift imparted by suffering meant for our benefit, if we will receive it. I live in Dine territory not far from the Indian Highway. Much of the same style of Baal-like ritualistic entertainment reminds me of many Dine and other native warning stories. Thank you for teaching the history. Only word of mouth and stone tell tales in the end
Demonic rituals always call for human sacrifices. Horrible vibes and devoid of consciousness in those altars
Anasazi and Anunaki aren't far off etymologically speaking. Not saying they are the same beings, but they do have similar qualities (or lack thereof).
sometimes, it's alright if you reject suffering, and stuff it up the posterior of whomever offers it to you.
pack it in there good where it belongs. free west papua, 62 years of silent genocide for u.s. gold mining.
make sure it's packed extra tight.
@@homiesenatepIsn't the Christian religion based around a human sacrifice?
Thank you for sharing the precious wisdom of your elders. Everyone should be encouraged to do the same.
Lived in Arizona for fifty years. Love our land. As for the video, I just want to say it explains much about the feelings we get sometimes. Thanks so much.
Wow, this is fascinating. When I was young, there was a summer gathering with drumming circle where I live, I remember being brought to tears listening to the beautiful sound of the drumming and the voices. Not a drop of Native ancestry in my history, but that doesn't mean something in the universal language of music didn't speak directly into my spirit. I feel kindred, if nothing else. Thank you for sharing your history.
Great to see Uncle Wally out & about!! Aho 💚
Knowing what little I know of the Navajo people when I read the history of Chaco Canyon that wrongfully said there was famine so they started to cannibalize one another I knew that was a flat out lie. Living up so high and hidden in the cliffs was obviously a defensive position for your people to take and surely not an easy way of life. Thank you for the true history.
Canabals were a fact.....proven by clues!
The reason they lived up so high was the fear of being eaten and enslaved.....
Yes - the Anasazi probably came from Mexico (Aztecs) and found a people ripe to be dominated and terrorized. The Anasazi used brutal acts of cannibalism and dismemberment that the Aztecs practiced. They cooked heads face up to bake the brains for dinner.
@@Philip-xk5uiThe Anasazi were the ones cannibalizing and enslaving.
Chaco is not Navaho but people from northern Mexico
Chaco means the place of crying,very fitting name. I have personally had paranormal experiences there.
You are sir are a national treasure. Please keep making these videos...
I lived in New Mexico for over 12 years and have visited Chaco many times. Altnough it is impressive architecturally, there is an overwhelming dark energy present. Most non-Native people I've talked to thought it was this great spiritual place, but I've always felt very uneasy entering that canyon. It was an undeniable feeling that I cant say I've experienced anywhere else. I would carry that feeling sometimes for days aftering leaving. The prevailing theories about Chaco culture never made sense to me. There was so much not explained.
It wasn't until years, and several visits, later that I learned some of the real history of the ruins through some of my Jemez friends. One friend told me they "were messing with things they should not be messing with." I heard that they were trying to change time and the weather and that they had to be destroyed. Most of my Native friends would say very little if anything about that place. That always made me wonder. I also learned from friends who worked for the US Forrest Service about some bizzare archeological and forensic findings including bones, etc. Most of this information is not available in books or on the internet. But, thanks to men like Mr. Brown we can know more of the truth.
There was evidence in an article about 10 years back that claimed there was evidence in the bone piles of human sacrifice. Scratches on human bones and so I think Wallys oral history is truer than what we learned.
Recently, archeologists are trained not to see human sacrifice, even taught that "there is no evidence" for it. Evidence and sites are reinterpreted, so that even things with NO other logical explanation are reburied academically.
I know of one place which now is said to have been a used for rituals involved in treaties between people groups. But what had been found there decades before, showed that children and infants had been sawn into pieces before ritual burial. Evil.
That is very interesting! Thank you for sharing!
That feeling of DARKNESS or uneasiness comes from your own dark history of the United States. They were masters of time and space and marked celestial events. Not trying to change time or nature. That was done by biliganas (Caucasians) and is still being done today. The Cern experiment has messed up the timeline and global warming is driving cloud seeding, trying to control the weather. We don't believe that Caucasians should be destroyed because they're doing that, so what on earth would make you think that Navajos would want to destroy a people for thinking different? Friends who worked for the US Forest Service?? Sounds like BS...pardon my french. The national database on artifacts excavated from these sites proves that their was never any ritualistic sacrifices or prisoners held at ANY of these pueblos. PROVE ME WRONG
Interesting. Thanks I’ve always wondered about the cliff dwellers and all the pottery.
I remember watching a documentary from the 90s (I think--could have been early 2000s) where an archaeologist had found evidence that the Anasazi, in at least one ruin, had practiced cannibalism. It caused quite a bit of controversy at the time, but since then there have been more discoveries, plus listening to the oral traditions, that seem to validate those findings.
they didn't practice cannibalism, they were cannibalized.
'somehow' a dimensional portal was opened and 6 fingers/6 toes foot giants human flesh eaters came to this world and start the feast.
The problem is Dine/Navajo-Pueblo animosity going back to ancient times confounds the issue and complicating it was a clueless archeologist in the early 20th Century using the name "Anasazi" to name the ancient culture of the area who were clearly a Pueblo people and not "outsiders" as the name implies especially as they were there long before the Navajo/Dine peoples arrived. So when cannibalism was discovered in the "Anasazi" culture, a backlash ensued against the perceived bias of both Western and Navajo/Dine perspectives. But as the documentary shows, the cannibalism did not originate with that ancient Pueblo culture. It makes its appearance around the 10th Century CE and disappears after the 12th Century which fits in with the old tales. So the "Anasazi" that most people think of were actually ancient Pueblo peoples living there for thousands of years and the "Anasazi" of the Dine tales were an outside group from the South (most likely Mexico) who dominated the area for a short time and were eventually destroyed.

I don't think anyone else dicusses this information about the Anasazi. I find it riveting. I really appreciate it. Ty.
Once again I am grateful for the lesson. I was one of the misinformed people who believed that they were a wise and great people (the Anasazi). I'm glad to know the truth behind the misconception so I can help educate others.
Had a beautiful Dine family pick me up in the desert today when it was 100 degrees. They were coming the back way from Alamo towards To’hajiilee. I lost count how many Pueblos passed me by.
It is a worthy thing to preserve such wisdom that I would not hear - but I have ears to hear, and now we are in a new time. A time when one voice may share knowledge through generations.
I LOVE hearing him speak his Native language. 🥰
This has the ring of truth. I grew up in Colorado and Arizona and used to love exploring. Coming across ruins was commonplace. At some, the despair, the horror, dread..and the uncountable loss I would feel near some of them made my insides clench..such imagery ran through my mind. I have profound respect for what the ancestors of he contemporary nations endured.
Migwech. Its beautiful to hear you speak in your language. Thanks for interesting teachings.
At Pueblo Pintado I noticed that the construction was similar to what you pointed out with large stones then layers of small stones and large stones and so forth. Also traditionalist stayed away from the ruins and said something about ghost sickness.
I learned more in this 15 minute video about the Anasazi than in all of my history classes and on every TV documentary.
Now learn from the Anasazi themselves, they are still here.

I can remember going on a field trip to Chaco when I was a kid. It made me ill but I didn't know why. I went back there about 20 yrs ago. From that experience, I know there was darkness and evil there. Your history explains my experiences. Thank you
This explains a lot about why the cliff dwellers lived up so high and why their homes were not easy to get to. Thank you for the video, I had never heard this before and it explains so much about the different building styles as well.
Thankyou for your explanation of cliff dwellers. Now only I understood why they stayed so much up on the cliff so as not to be attacked by the Anasazi.

thank you for making this video. im navajo, and unfortunately im not really in touch with my culture. i only know a few things, so these videos really help me.
Its not what it was
Growing up. Being Navajo my grandparents and my mother told us never to go near ancient ruins. Not to touch or play around them. There is evil and bad spirits there. In Navajo there alot of Taboos about our people going near ruins. My grandparents were kinda upset my two aunts married into pueblo families. Because their ways were totally different from ours but eventually they became to deal with it.
This man is a keeper of such important information, especially at these end times. Thankyou for facilitating these accounts for posterity. I hope you keep them in a very afe place.
I watch these for better understanding. This is why the tradition of oral story telling for history is so very important. thank you.
Thank you, this was clearly a difficult but important topic to cover.
I saw one of those pottery mounds. I could no imagine that people could make such a huge mound of broken pottery.
Maney years ago I traveled to Chaco . Perhaps it is cursed. With in a year the life I had lived was destroyed. I traveled very far away . changed ever dark way I was involved . I was sorry and changed . Today I begin to comprehend how a life of peace is to be lived. Thank you for sharing. Means a lot.

Indeed, have you spoken to the European tribes? The Welsh, the Frisians etc? There are plenty of unassimilated groups of people that would love to talk to you about your perspectives
Yes but if you want to know about ancient Puebloan people it might be more accurate to consult present Puebloan people not a tribe that just recently took over their lands.

Fascinating. Your presentation helped answer many of my questions.
It’s is so important to get the word out. These “never talked to a native” scholars tell the story in such a way that makes no sense. The lands and remaining dwellings/ cliff dwellings tell a different story than they preach. What you say makes sense.
This dovetails neatly with controversial archeological findings that Anasazi human remains show characteristic signs of butchery and cannibalism. These signs appear late in the history of the cliff dwellers after a migration of people from Aztec territory in the south, as I recall.
Very excellent lessons from a wise honor worthy teacher. I think it is so important that we who come here seeking really pay deep attention and really listen with 100% of our attention on this elders words. He is speaking his peoples truth, he is walking in beauty, we are blessed to be receiving this.I think the audience must be mindful not to return to our busy modern world and proceed as per usual., we either carelessly dissipate his energy or we can choose to radiate it outward, ripples in water, each a part of the other part, one whole organism all connected.

The history of the Dine is fascinating. I have not heard before of the legend that the cliff dwellers and the Dine had merged and eradicated earlier slave-holding groups. That makes perfect sense and seems to fit with archaeological observations. Thank you.
The slave-holding people were not "earlier." They came from the south and enslaved the peoples who had been living in this southwest area for thousands of years. Their reign of terror was only about 300 years.
It was NOT the dine ppl who eradicated, but their gods, the Navajo never take any responsibility of what the gods do, that's a big no no if they do...if they did they wouldn't be any better than those evil cannibals.

I am so thankful that you have shared this teaching with us. It is fascinating history that should be preserved. Thank you.
Thank You for bringing to light some of the unanswered questions I have pondered! I always believed of a conquering people coming from Mexico or South America that had migrated into Arizona. Bringing with them their own "traditions" of slavery and even cannibalism and imposing their will upon the people. Perhaps first meeting each other through trade then finally through conquest. Generations would pass before the Anasazi were no more and that the people would again find their own freedoms. It also gives reason for the millions of shards I have seen throughout the Southwest! I'm a student of many disciplines and find the history of Native Americans fascinating!!! PEACE
