My project about the Pueblo
Indians taught me a lot. It taught me that Pueblo’s
worked together to prepare food, build houses, and worship & talk to their
spirits called Kachina’s. The Pueblo’s
ate vegetables but they would eat buffalo meat when it was available. They
hunted deer, antelope, and mountain lions, they also gathered corn. They made
villages and houses out of adobe mud-a type of cement. They would also live in
caves or built shelters out of pole. The Pueblo’s
wore buffalo skin, and used yucca-a plant to sew their clothes together with,
the string felt like silk. Pueblo’s were located in many
places such as Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, Nevada, and Colorado. The men hunted, women cooked and
watched the children. The Pueblo’s had ceremonies; worshiping Kachina’s- they
believed that they were spirits who returned with the clouds and rain to help
their people. Over 300 different Kachina’s were believed to exist. I have
learned a lot about the Pueblo’s
culture, beliefs, and customs!!!
