Zuni people#Carving and silversmithing

Archaeology suggests that the Zuni have been farmers in the general area for 3,000 to 4,000 years. It is now thought that the Ancestral Zuni people inhabited the Zuni River valley from the last millennium B.C., when they began using irrigation to farm maize on at least household-sized plots.Zuni Origins: Toward a New Synthesis of Southwestern Archaeology, The University of Arizona Press (2009), {{ISBN|978-0816528936}}, edited by David A.

Zuni culture is associated with Mogollon and Ancestral Pueblo peoples cultures, who lived in the deserts of New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, and southern Colorado for over two millennia. White Mound was one such settlement of pit houses, farming, and storerooms, built around 700 A.D., followed by the village of Kiatuthlanna around 800 A.D., and Allantown around 1000 A.D. These Mogollon villages included kivas. Likewise, Zuni ancestors were in contact with the Ancestral Puebloans at Chaco Canyon around 1100. The Zuni settlement called Village of the Great Kivas, was built around 1100, and included nine kivas. The Zuni region, however, was probably only sparsely populated by small agricultural settlements until the 12th century when the population and the size of the settlements began to increase. The large villages of Heshot Ula, Betatakin, and Kiet Siel were established by 1275. By the 13th century villages were built on top of mesas, including Atsinna on Inscription Rock. In the 14th century, the Zuni inhabited a dozen pueblos containing between 180 and 1,400 rooms, while the Anasazi abandoned larger settlements for smaller ones, or established new ones along the Rio Grande. The Zuni did move from the eastern portion of their territory to the western side, and built six new villages, Halona, Hawikuh, Kiakima, Matsaki, Kwakina, and Kechipaun.{{refn|Also Kechipauan or Kechipauen.{{cite book |last1=Clark |first1=Patricia Roberts |title=Tribal Names of the Americas: Spelling Variants and Alternative Forms, Cross-Referenced |date=21 October 2009 |publisher=McFarland |isbn=978-0-7864-5169-2 |pages=10,104 |language=en}}}} Halona was located 97 km north Zuni Salt Lake, and the Zuni traded in salt, corn and turquoise.

In 1539, Moorish slave Estevanico led an advance party of Fray Marcos de Niza's Spanish expedition. Sponsored by Antonio de Mendoza who wanted Niza to "explain to the natives of the land that there is only one God in heaven, and the Emperor on earth to rule and govern it, whose subjects they all must become and whom they must serve." The Zuni reportedly killed Estevanico as a spy, or for being "greedy, voracious and bold". This was Spain's first contact with any of the Pueblo peoples.David Roberts, The Pueblo Revolt, 56 (Simon and Schuster, 2004). {{ASIN|B000MC1CHQ}}. Reprint, 2005, {{ISBN|0-7432-5517-8}} Francisco Vásquez de Coronado expedition followed in the wake of Niza's Seven Cities of Cibola claim. Sponsored once again by Mendoza, Coronado led 230 soldiers on horseback, 70 foot soldiers, several Franciscan priests and Mexican natives. The Spanish met 600 Zuni warriors near Hawikuh in July 1540, inflicting several casualties, and capturing the village. Coronado continued to the Rio Grande, but several priests and soldiers stayed an additional two years. The Chamuscado and Rodríguez Expedition followed in 1581, and Antonio de Espejo in 1583. Juan de Oñate visited Zuni territory in 1598 and 1604 looking for copper mines, but without success. Francisco Manuel de Silva Nieto established a mission at Hawikuh in 1629 with two Franciscan priests. They completed a church compound in 1632, and established a second mission in Halona. Shortly afterwards, the Zuni destroyed the missions, killing two priests, and then retreated to Dowa Yalanne, where they remained for the next three years. The Spanish built another mission in Halona in 1643.{{rp|56–59}}

Before the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, the Zuni lived in six villages. After the revolt, until 1692, they took refuge in a defensible position atop Dowa Yalanne, a steep mesa 5 km (3.1 miles) southeast of the present Pueblo of Zuni; Dowa means "corn", and yalanne means "mountain". After the establishment of peace and the return of the Spanish, the Zuni relocated to their present location, returning to the mesa top only briefly in 1703.Flint, Richard and Shirley Cushing Flint [http://newmexicohistory.org/filedetails_docs.php?fileID=21237 "Dowa Yalanne, or Corn Mountain"]. {{webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20120714042635/http://newmexicohistory.org/filedetails_docs.php?fileID=21237 |date=2012-07-14 }} New Mexico Office of the State Historian. 21 April 2012. By the end of the 17th century, only Halona was still inhabited of the original six villages. Yet, satellite villages were settled around Halona, and included Nutria, Ojo Caliente, and Pescado.{{rp|67–69, 73–78}}

Of the three Zuni missions, only the church at Halona was rebuilt after the reconquest. According to Nancy Bonvillain, "Indeed, by the late eighteenth century, Spanish authorities had given up hope of dominating the Zuni and other western Pueblo Indians, and in 1799 only seven Spanish people were recorded as living among the Zuni.". In 1821, the Franciscans ended their missionary efforts.{{rp|71–74}}

In 1848, U.S. Army Lt. Col. Henderson P. Boyakin signed a treaty with Zuni and Navajo leaders stating the Zuni "shall be protected in the full management of all their rights of Private Property and Religion...[by] the authorities, civil and military, of New Mexico and the United States." Observing the Zuni in the 1850s, Balduin Möllhausen noted "In all directions, fields of wheat and maize, as well as gourds and melons, bore testimony to their industry."{{rp|81, 83}}

The Zuni Reservation was created by the United States federal government in 1877, and enlarged by a second Executive order in 1883.{{rp|86–88}}

Frank Hamilton Cushing, an anthropologist associated with the Smithsonian Institution, lived with the Zuni from 1879 to 1884. He was one of the first non-native participant-observers and ethnologists at Zuni. In 1979, it was reported that some members of the Pueblo consider he had wrongfully documented the Zuni way of life, exploiting them by photographing and revealing sacred traditions and ceremonies.Frank Hamilton Cushing, Zuni (University of Nebraska, 1979).

During the early 2000s, the Zuni opposed the development of a coal mine near the Zuni Salt Lake, a site sacred to the Zuni and under Zuni control.{{cite news |last=Neary |first=Ben |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2001-feb-18-me-26824-story.html |title=Mining Plan Pits Tribe Against Power Industry |work=Los Angeles Times |date=18 February 2001 |access-date=26 May 2009}} The mine would have extracted water from the aquifer below the lake and would also have involved construction between the lake and the Zuni.

The Zuni traditionally speak the Zuni language, a language isolate that has no known relationship to any other Native American language. Linguists believe that the Zuni have maintained the integrity of their language for 6,000-to-7,000 years.{{cite web |title=Zuni Origins |url=https://www.archaeologysouthwest.org/projects/zuni-origins/ |publisher=Archaeology Southwest |access-date=8 November 2021}} The Zuni do, however, share a number of words from Keresan, Hopi, and Pima pertaining to religion.

The Zuni were and are a traditional people who live by irrigated agriculture and raising livestock. Gradually the Zuni farmed less and turned to sheep and cattle herding as a means of economic development. Their success as a desert agri-economy is due to careful management and conservation of resources, as well as a complex system of community support. Many contemporary Zuni also rely on the sale of traditional arts and crafts. Some Zuni still live in the old-style Pueblos, while others live in modern houses. Their location is relatively isolated, but they welcome respectful tourists{{Citation needed|date=February 2023}}.

The Zuni Tribal Fair and rodeo is held the third weekend in August. The Zuni also participate in the Gallup Inter-Tribal Ceremonial, usually held in early or mid-August.

Traditionally, Zuni women made pottery for storing food and water. They used symbols of their clans for designs. Clay for the pottery is sourced locally. Prior to its extraction, the women give thanks to the Earth Mother (Awidelin Tsitda) according to ritual. The clay is ground, sifted, mixed with water, rolled into a coil, shaped into a vessel or other design, and scraped smooth with a scraper. A thin layer of finer clay, called slip, is applied to the surface for extra smoothness and color. The vessel is polished with a stone after it dries. It is painted with home-made organic dyes, using a traditional yucca brush. The shape and painted images depend on the intended purpose of the pottery. To fire the pottery, the Zuni used animal dung in traditional kilns. Today, Zuni potters might use electric kilns. While the firing was usually a community enterprise, silence or communication in low voices was considered essential in order to maintain the original "voice" of the "being" of the clay, and the purpose of the end product.Morrell, Virginia.

Zuni also make fetishes and necklaces for the purpose of rituals and trade, and more recently for sale to collectors.

The Zuni are known for their fine lapidary work. Zuni jewelers set hand-cut turquoise and other stones in silver.Adair 14 Today jewelry-making thrives as an art form among the Zuni. Many Zuni have become master stone-cutters. Techniques used include mosaic and channel inlay to create intricate designs and unique patterns.

Two specialties of Zuni jewelers are needlepoint and petit point. In making needlepoint, small, slightly oval-shaped stones with pointed ends are set in silver bezels, close to one another and side by side to create a pattern. The technique is normally used with turquoise, sometimes with coral and occasionally with other stones in creating necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings. Petit point is made in the same fashion as needlepoint, except that one end of each stone is pointed, and the other end is rounded.{{citation needed|date=October 2014}}

{{Further|Zuni religion}}

Religion is central to Zuni life. Their traditional religious beliefs are centered on the three most powerful of their deities: Earth Mother, Sun Father, and Moonlight-Giving Mother. The religion is katsina-based, and ceremonies occur during winter solstice, summer, harvest, and again in winter.{{rp|14–15,25–40}}

Priesthood includes three priests (north, above and below), and Pekwin (the above priest) determines the religious calendar. A religious society is associated with each of the six kivas, and each boy is initiated into one of these societies.{{cite book |last1=Wright |first1=Barton |title=History and Background of Zuni Culture, in Patterns and Sources of Zuni Kachinas |date=1988 |publisher=Hamsen Publishing Company |isbn=9780960132249 |pages=37–38}}

Shalako is a series of ceremonial dances that take place throughout the night{{cite web |title=Zuni Shalako Figure |url=https://americanart.si.edu/artwork/zuni-shalako-figure-767 |publisher=Smithsonian Institution |access-date=23 December 2020}} on or around the winter solstice. They are closed to non-native individuals unless there is a personal invitation by a tribal member. The ceremony also blesses the houses that were built during the year. The blessing takes the form of singing that accompanies six dancers who are dressed in Shalako outfits.{{cite book |last1=Wright |first1=Barton |title=Patterns and Sources of Zuni Kachinas |date=1988 |publisher=Hamsen Publishing |isbn=9780960132249 |pages=42–45, 80–101}} These outfits can be as high as eight feet; the dancers wearing them represent "couriers of the rain deities come to bless new homes".{{cite web |title=Our Culture |url=http://www.ashiwi.org |publisher=Pueblo of Zuni |access-date=23 December 2020}}{{cite book |last1=Bonvillain |first1=Nancy |title=The Zuni |date=2011 |publisher=Chelsea House Publishers |location=New York |isbn=9781604137996}}{{cite book |last1=Cushing |first1=Frank |title=The Mythic World of the Zuni |date=1988 |publisher=University of New Mexico Press |location=Albuquerque |isbn=9780826313874}} The dancers move from house to house throughout the night; at dawn Saiyatasha performs a final prayer and the ceremony is complete.
