    2:08 wish I was there to watch that dance!!!
    Yes we’re still here after everything that we’ve been through
    I’m am grateful you got so much information straight from the source not from the internet or a book written by non native
    My grandfather was a kiva chief for years
    24:40 my great grandmother’s house
    Many elders have been going through many hardships especially today that story of that misungovi elder waiting for someone to bring her water broke my heart.

    I enjoyed your info. I am Hopi from Fiest Mesa, and our Grandmothers home is the last home on the left as you enter the narrow ridge to reach Walpi. There is alot to learn and I still am. Thank You 👍👋

      I'm curious to ask, weren't the ancient Hopi holidays different dates than ours? And I suspect that their Holidays might match a Jewish calendar's holidays.

    That pink house is my Great Grandma's house, we just recently reopened that house after about 15 years since she passed away. It was left untouched with everything still inside just the way we left it.

    When the missionaries first went to the Hopi in the 1800s, they found that the Hopi had had dreams and visions that the missionaries would come and that it was of God. But almost no one joined the church and accepted the Gospel. I suspect that part of the reasons for this were that the Hopi culture was closer to some Jewish traditions rather than Ephraimite traditions and that this is partly why they had trouble recognizing how to accept things, and why they couldn't at the time.
    The 2 war twins story for example is closer to the story of '2 messiahs'. LDS don't teach 2 messiahs but Jewish people DO teach 2 messiahs, where 1 is a lesser messiah that will be marred.
    ...
    Also in native cultures; the angels and becoming an angel, ascending to be an angel, or resurrecting, being resurrected was represented by eagle feathers, and other elite avian feathers. Then the other animals being symbols of the priesthood were associated with animals like, bear, fox, and so on... it fits in with that because they are 'strengthened', but not yet angels yet. And the animals mean their priesthood was overcoming the natural man, which is a beast; get it? Overcoming the natural man, the beast to become a saint or an eagle feather, which is an angel. (And now that you think about it, the chiefs and leaders were associated with eagle feathers because of angels.)Thus, animal symbols actually fit when you unlock the true meaning.
    ...
    The meaning of Pemmican is very similar to how Nephi ate meat that was sweetened quoted in 1st Nephi. Counting coup by the plains tribes tradition comes from how the people of Ammon stood up to their brothers armies with no weapons with courage and allowed to live.
    There are so many links to the gospel in native heritage. Things that only natives will recognize.
    ...
    The old stories of Missionaries from the 1800s said that there used to be... I think it was 7 mesas originally with Hopi villages/cities on them. It would be interesting to hear from them about what they say about the other mesas and what happened to them.
