A provocative look at the traditional beliefs, customs, spirit and incredible prophecies of the Hopi people.
The oral history of the Hopi people tell them that they were the first human beings to inhabit the North and South American continents and that they arrived on large rafts, island-hopping across the Pacific Ocean…not by the land bridge that once connected Alaska and Siberia!
Perhaps most astounding of all in the story of the Hopis is their tradition of prophecies, and their incredible accuracy—including the coming of white men with guns, the coming of wagons, the coming of therail-road, cattle, sheep, electric power lines—and future wars!
A insightful read for anyone interested in Native Americans and the incredible saga of an ancient people who have survived into modern times and continue to practice their ancient ceremonials.
