 Dances->Buffalo: Origin of the Buffalo Dance     
Posted on Wednesday, August 04 @ 17:55:48 CDT (4463 reads)



Literature & Legends

KEYWORDS: buffalo dance origin of the buffalo dance history of the buffalo dance buffalo story buffalo legend story for kid Indian legend

When the buffalo first came to be upon the land, they were not friendly to the people. When the hunters tried to coax them over the cliffs for the good of the villages, they were reluctant to offer themselves up.

They did not relish being turned into blankets and dried flesh for winter rations. They did not want their hooves and horn to become tools and utinsels nor did they welcome their sinew being used for sewing. "No, no," they said. We won't fall into your traps. And we will not fall for your tricks."

So when the hunters guided them towards the abyss, they would always turn aside at the very last moment. With this lack of cooperation, it seemed the villagers would be hungry and cold and ragged all winter long.

 Dances->Buffalo: History of the Buffalo Dance

American Indian Dances

KEYWORDS: history of the buffalo dance pueblo dance animal dance buffalo dances

The buffalo is a symbol of abundance.

Historically, Pueblo Peoples crossed the mountains to the north to hunt or trade for buffalo and bring back meat for the long winter.

Like all Animal Dances, the Buffalo Dance is a celebration of thanksgiving. The hunter takes on the spirit of the buffalo he has hunted during the year. He thanks the spirit of that animal, and he asks for good luck for next year's hunting.
