Speaking in Tewa, Reycita Garcia of San Juan Pueblo explains the importance of water and sweet white corn in the Pueblo naming ceremony. Grandmothers take blanket-swaddled newborns outdoors, brush them with cornmeal, and greet the four directions before baptizing the babies. "My grandmother drank the medicine water," she explains, "and also placed some in my mouth.
Garcia is one of many Native Americans whose voice contributes to the stories told in a standing exhibit that opened in August in Pojoaque Pueblo's Poeh Museum, part of the Poeh Cultural Center. The museum seeks to reflect the art and culture of the Pueblo people and is particularly focused on the Tewa-speaking pueblos of Nambe, Pojoaque, San Ildefonso, San Juan, Santa Clara, and Tesuque as well as the Tiwa-speaking pueblos ...

[Forrest Fenn]'s attorney, regarding the recent search, a federal informant had visited people's homes and taken "a broad based look at materials in people's collections." Fenn has not been charged, he says, "and of the thousands of objects in his collection, they took four items" during the June search. One object, a buffalo skull, was sold to an undercover agent, he says, while agents took "another buffalo skull, an old basket and an art object he made himself.
I fully expect we are going to be able to resolve this matter," Schoenburg says. "He hasn't done anything wrong and is not going to get charged with any of those crimes." He adds it is "a mistake to lump him in with the other people in this case."
