The last old-time Snake Dance ever held at Oraibi. This shows the Snake priests after the chanting has ceased, gathering in groups of three, ready to receive the snakes from the snake keeper in the kisi. Old Oraibi, Hopi Indian Reservation, Arizona
Visual Materials
The photographs in this collection depict Hopi natives and their families; the Hopi villages of Oraibi and Mishongnovi; the Snake Dance; the Antelope Dance; the Blue Flute Ceremony; the race before the Snake Dance; initiation ceremonies into the Snake Society; kivas; the altar of the Blue Flute Society; preparations for the Blue Flute Ceremony; and crypts (in which smallpox victims were burned) being used as a storage area. There are also photographs of Earle R. Forrest traveling through Arizona and Louis Akin observing the Snake Dance ceremony. A photograph of an amphitheater in Wupatki National Monument and a photograph of a stone serpent head at a temple of Quetzalcoatl in San Juan Teotihuacán, Mexico are included. It appears from the photo captions that Forrest placed these photos in the collection to help explain the origins of the Hopi Snake Dance.
