Pottery Collectibles

But there is ever so much more that you will want to see at this site, so please take a look yourself. It includes not only beautiful, authentic Native American arts and crafts, it also has historical pottery, the origins of pottery and even gives care instructions.

I plan to go back to visit and study often. Maybe sometimes I'll even get to buy something.

Words Spoken in Opposition to a Treaty Selling Land
quoted from Native Wisdom edited by Joseph Bruchac:

I wonder if the land has anything to say? I wonder if the ground is listening to what is said? I wonder if the ground would come alive and what is on it? Though I hear what the ground says. The ground says, It is the Great Spirit who placed me here. The Great Spirit tells me to take care of the Indians to feed them aright.

The same way the ground says, it was from me human beings were made. The Great Spirit, in placing human beings on the earth, desired them to take good care of the ground and to do each other no harm.

Young Chief (Cayuse), 1855
