EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph depicts the Altar of Tsaniakiakwe, a sacred site of the Hunter Fraternity within the Zuni Nation. The Zuni people, located in the southwestern United States, have a rich cultural heritage that includes complex religious practices and rituals. The Altar of Tsaniakiakwe is a prominent feature of the Hunter Fraternity's ceremonies, which are focused on ensuring the success of the hunt and the well-being of the community. The altar is believed to be the dwelling place of Tsaniakiakwe, the Kachina spirit of the hunt. The intricately detailed image showcases the altar's various elements, including the central figure of Tsaniakiakwe, represented by a mask and a bow and arrow. Surrounding the central figure are offerings such as corn, beans, squash, and other symbolic items. The altar is also adorned with feathers, beads, and other decorative elements. This beautiful chromolithograph was created by August Hoen for the 23rd Annual Report of the Bureau of American Ethnology, published in 1904 by John Wesley Powell. The report was a significant contribution to the field of ethnography, documenting the cultures and traditions of various Native American tribes. Hoen's chromolithograph provides a vivid and accurate representation of the Altar of Tsaniakiakwe and offers a glimpse into the religious practices and beliefs of the Zuni people.
