Yei Be Chai Dance Ceremonial Pictorial

Showing bows, arrows, Sacred Corn which provides the pollen for healing, the Medicine Man receiving an Eagle Feather from the Donor, 5 pairs of Male and Female Yei Be Chai Singers and Dancers, the Shaman (interestingly staring directly out at the observer of the weaving).  One gets the idea that he is telling everyone to lead a pure and virtuous life and they will not be affected with illnesses that require healing such as this.  the significant piece is woven in magnificent pastel shades.
