I'm very happy for you that you know your ancestors' history. I love learning about your family's interesting history. Thank you, you are such a blessing...
Hi Cindy, thank you for taking the time to listen and hear and hopefully learn from these videos of mine. It is so appreciated and brings me joy. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you so much. It's speaking truth and I say I am my Nali who exemplified how to honor all who comes into your circle for they matter. Some wild exceptions who come with their dirt. It's not for you to wash them off but for themselves as you provide the water and soap. Something like you can bring a horse to water but you can't force him. I appreciate your words of Hozho. Axhehee(thank you). Hugs of kindness. Navajo Grandma
Very powerful! This video highlights the shared knowledge across tribal nations. Much of modern Dinè history has been re-told to fit a certain narrative. Thank you for sharing the true aspects and nature of Dinè history and culture. There is so much that people may not be ready for, even our fellow brothers and sisters. Your Grandfather embodied the energy of the Diyiin Dinè. He utilized this energy to live out his mission and give to others. Thank you for sharing!
I thank you so very much for your precious response and how receptive you are. Shi Nali was so spiritual & he learned these strengths thru what happened to him which I haven't spoken. I hope I can compose myself enough. It's a hard story then he became even more empowered thru prayer, faith, his oral history taught to him on Cabezon Peak by his father, the honor he carried himself with. But when he had skinwalkers of his own relatives who hated him came prowling at night with poisons at the Hogan fire opening, he was a straight shooter from his hip, like the rifleman movies. Hus shot was accurate. Deadly accurate like my dad as my dad was the gunnar because he had accuracy the white folks could not believe. So back to the Hogan incidences, Shi Nali shot into the chimney opening and didn't miss. He reported this and the Navajo police told him to just wait who was talked about being injured by a shotgun. It was found out 2 days later it was family down the way. The reports were made & sadly these people continued their evil because they were jealous that my nali prospered but they didn't. God took care of us as prayer, reverence, pure faith, serving, humility was my Nalis armor. So many blessed examples my Nali was. He walked on water thru my eyes. He took care of his family & carried me, let me hang onto his leggings, taught me many sacred lessons dealing with my shoes, how mythology was evil traditions, how to become a great leader as he exemplified this. He was tall and tall in spirit stature. I miss him but I know he & daddy watch over us with my Bizhi, mom & other ancestors. So humbling. This is why I speak truth & teach you truth. My dine' people do not like what I say or teach, only to try to tear me down. It's a people who wonder why they are in poverty when they don't need to be.
@@NavajoGrandma Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to me as well. That spirituality that he had sounds like it gave him so much strength and spiritual wisdom! I appreciate you opening up! His life and the way that he carried himself is a powerful example, and I believe that this caused relatives to become jealous. Unfortunately, it is like that till this day. That is sad and awful that it was family down the way! I can only begin to imagine what the reaction was of your Grandfather. Those relatives did not remember the teachings of the holy ones, because all of that energy and evil always backfires and comes back to haunt them. The powerful energy that he carried was much more powerful than that evil energy. I really appreciate all of your teachings, and I sometimes wonder how many people on Navajo Nation know the truth. I was recently talking about this with a friend on the rez. The Dinè need to come together, I worked and lived on the rez for a few yrs as a Teacher, and I revisit every year. I always hope and pray that the Dinè can come together and reach new heights as a collective.
I do not believe the Dine' have the ability or desire to change. They are deathly seeped in false mythology traditions and not in reality of truths. Sad. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma Finally having a chance to reply! This is very deep stuff! Do you think this is due to the boarding schools and false knowledge, or due to their upbringing?
@@RonnieWisdom Ronnie I am confused with your question as this video was regarding the timeline of Richard Wetherill, my Great grandfather and grandfather, then the lies of the white people who gave a name to this Chaco Canyon for their gain and not the truth. confused? Gma
Wow my dear subscriber from Scotland. May the rain always be a blessing from heaven. There are places with droughts, you are blessed. It's home. Hugs always to you across the great waters. Navajo Grandma
Catching up on videos; thank you Navajo Grandma for the story and your family history. Way better knowing oral history of what happened. When I visited Chaco seeing the dry arroyo, I pondered how it would be possible to grow food😖the theft of your Water now makes it clear what went on. These are important truths to know and I’m saddened by the facts. My Dad was also in the Civilian Conservation Corps in Paradox CO, he said it was some of the best days of his life. He loved the mountains and the trees.
And thank you again such lovely information. The Civilian Conservation Corps was created probably all over the United States during the Depression as it was a great gift of income for families with head of households to feed their families but these men went far and wide to work but it was work. Well the Chaco Rangers do not agree with what my Nali spoke about the rivers that use to flow there, (the ranchers, etc upstream redirected the waters to serve them, not our dear ancestors) our paternal and maternal ancestors drank from these rivers, fresh watercress, black shrimp under the rock ledges, and more and planted gardens here, mainly corn, which they made flour from but it wasn't as much a mainstay as the people say. My Nali in his recording he wept remembering the squash of differing varieties that use to grow there and how wonderful of a harvest it was. The different foods eaten and prepared. They were all vegan and ate little meat. It wasn't until the 1800's did these things come about. The white folks saw the Dine' and thought they were starving when in essence they were slender and were vegan and ate wonderful vegetables, pine nuts, fruit from the cactus, and peach, apple trees, choke cherries and raspberry trees in the canyons, cicada's for protein, honey from the hives, goodness gracious it was a thriving life, but then something happened. The bears from the Chuska Mountains out west use to eat the fish from here and also killed many a Dine' as they walked a lot without cars, there were frogs and fish there and the valley was beautiful, high green grasses and full of Elk and mountain lions (who still stalk the Elk there, I know cuz one I swear would have take us down during one of my videos, sheesh!!). The Rangers won't tell you this, after our crazy incident, they checked and saw some tracks but within minutes they left and there were people walking around everywhere there in the south end where the Winter & Summer solstice takes place. I was shocked. We also see these mountain lions chasing Elk down during later afternoons and boy they have a run almost 90 mph. Amazing again. Thus, it is true many truths are hidden here and why these people are gone. My Paternal line knew this, and was spoken, but the government does their things thru Greed, Power and Control. Nothing has changed. I have so much to say. Sorry. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Wow Dane there is more coming your way today. I am going to go finish up my video and hope you all understand it. I speak truth and teach your correct principles. You, Dane, think happy thoughts, relax and learn how to make your life strong, powerful and full of courage no matter what you have gone thru. I know you have that ability and more so with prayer. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you. If my Paternal grandparents didn't raise me I would not know the truths I learned as a child next to my medicine man, healer, leader, spiritual advisor counselor Nali. So thankful. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
2000 years ago, the resurrected Son of God visited the ancestors of all the native tribes of the entire American continent, not just North America. He healed them, taught them all things, took their children in his arms and blessed them. I don't have the slightest doubt about it. As the centuries passed, many forgot, but there are some who still remember him, like the grandparents of the Navajo Granma. Thank you dear grandma for telling us about your grandparents!
You bring me to tears your description. It is true. I was taught correct principles & prayer!! Thank you for your spirit of understanding thru the Holy Spirit. I love you so dearly. May God continue to keep your mind & spirit open to truths. Like the Chieftans of old they fasted & prayed for direction. So must we. Love you so. Navajo Grandma
Thank you Gavin and appreciate all you do to watch, learn and especially from a gorgeous spot on this Mother Earth. Send us sunshine always. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Very interesting Navajo Grandma! Thank you for sharing this intimate oral history. What a beautiful tradition you are keeping alive! I’m pumped up for what you’re doing here. So cool❣️💗
Kevin know that Navajo Grandma will only teach your correct principles. We shall start there. There have been only 2 solar eclipses in America since 1900s. So my question is this to my Dine' people and the medicine men shouting to shut your doors and don't swallow your spit until the eclipse is over, cover your windows, your animals on and on. Who taught these folks this? Our ancestors did not. They knew there was a life and death of the sun so they spoke, but it was appreciated and no they did not look at it but saw its shadows and washed themselves and were like receiving a new lease on life. These things taught by other Dine' are false traditions to lead the people away from God and the truths of reverencing and truly seeing that this is a natural occurrence, plus it is also prophesied that it was the beginning of the end of days. This one that past yesterday. There is a man on youtube who had a million plus views spouting that everyone who knows a Navajo needs to demean and tell them forcefully that they should not look at the eclipse or celebrate it. This is also false doctrine spoken by someone pulling in tons of money and promoting mythology as a way of life as mythology is a myth. It was made up by man. Then he is a Mormon no less and refuses to speak of Christ or to speak truth. Its awful what state of the Dine' we are in. Thus it is my duty to give my side of this eclipse and it is coming out this week. I pray you hear truth and I said, don't be gullible, don't just accept what is Fake News, get on your knees and ask God. Even in this. He will tell you if it is true or not. I even have challenged you all to do the same about what I speak and present. You need to wake up to what is true and what is not true. Even more so with the Whitehouse and all the evil they are cranking out. Wake up folks I say. Wake up and hear truth not mythology or lies. We need to be true to ourselves and realize greed, power and control is what feeds this false information. This is why Shi Nali, my paternal grandfather said, He will never teach us about mythology for it is false doctrine and leads may away from God. Amen. So now you have it. I hope you enjoyed this eclipse and reverence it, I watched it on tv and went about my day with prayer as always. Met with my children and we had great laughter and happy memories made. This eclipse has only happened twice in our lifetime span so how on earth did these folks make up this hooey about locking yourself indoors. I will speak out against it. False doctrine is blatantly here and loud and clear and being taught by the Navajo Medicine man claims to be and he is Mormon. How does that mix. It does not. Amen. Navajo Grandma
Very interesting content gramma🙏🏻. It teaches much. Partly how important it is to watch one’s back. It’s usually not the principalities and authorities that actually do the dirty work, but our neighbors who are hardened of heart , spirit and mind. Brothers turned on brothers. So much is lost when we loose our elders too soon. I knew the daughter of a former chief from a local tribe who asked her father why natives turned on him and did all the dirty, underhanded politics and backstabbing. He had taken them from bankruptcy and chaos, to a solid financial and community institution. They soon after removed him. He told her ; ‘ there was a white guy and a native sitting next to each other, fishing. The white guy looked at his friends worm box and said “ hey your worms are going to get out buddy “, the native said, “ nah , they’re native worms they won’t get out “. The white guy said “what do you mean by that?” The native said, when one starts to climb out of the box , all the other ones pull it back down.” Then my friend’s father added “ it’s an old black metaphor, but it works for natives too”. In the decades since I heard this , I have seen it happen in community after community, regardless of cultural heritage. God bless and teach us all 💚🙏🏻
Powerful truth you spoke with clarity and the reality stinks to high heaven. But it continues. Why I ran for Navajo Nation President. Too much evil now we have a pedophile as our president and a Communist dictator in the Whitehouse. WE need to stand strong .like now and since years ago. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Interesting, Has someone written anything telling the Dine side? We have been told the people moved because the lack of water, but you say there was a river running through there in the time of your great grandfather Thank you for keeping your history alive
I am telling my Dine' side. Finally someone to speak up the truths of what happened instead of swallowing everything we hear and read. Oral history and being raised by my Navajo Nali and Bizhi is powerful and all that history has been handed down from word of mouth from one generation to another. I am telling the truths now and boy some Navajo's will get wedgies as they don't believe in God or anything of the past as their grandparents did not teach them correct principles but they are raised and weened upon mythology. These are false traditions taught to our people to lead them away from Godly truths. Its despicable to hear even my own Navajo people's definition of who Christ is, I almost vomited at the evil. When they say the Holy Ones it is not what my definition is and its way scary. You then realize why they live in poverity and are not progressing. Yet those who know God and are living lives with faith and remembering their ancestral teachings of truths, they are moving forward. There is a difference between light and darkness. Its scary whats being accepted and rejected upon the Navajo Nation. Look to begin with as I ran for Navajo Nation President, who did the people choose? A pedophile. The people know but will never admit it. Sad state of affairs like the whitehouse. We need to stand up for truths not lay down and hope someone else does. Our trails have taught us to stand no matter what. God does live and He is our armor. And so is Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost. These are the true teachings of the Dine' ancestors. Navajo Grandma
You sound like my son, mom you need to make a movie of your life. But I am thru you all on TH-cam. This is not all but so much more. You would faint at my life story. It's my elders who's stories you need to hear first. Thank you. Navajo Grandma
I know! My world keeps getting bigger and schedules to meet. I am thankful. Yes we need to head that way soon again. Your friendship is an honor Amye. Sitting by that fire, sleeping there where you live are happy thoughts. I can imagine what great things you have done to renovate your home. Happy happy thoughts. Happy friend hugs. You started this fire of truth you know. Because of you asking if we were Hebrew started a ring of a truth fire so many are warming themselves and finally defining themselves. Remember your question? You were truly inspired & it's been a topic from all over this world being drawn to truths. But guess what that also opened the door to my Nali or Paternal grandfather's oral histories. Thank you Amye for opening the most insightful question of our lives & history. Hugs forever my friend. Navajo Grandma
We really need to talk. That land should be yours to farm and live on again create a town in his honor. Let’s go for making that happen. So many places taken away need opened back up and the people brought back to their home and way of life. Love you so much 😘🤗
This is true but everyone got chased off and rangers have to be present now to watch you that you don't take anything from your own land there in Chaco Canyon! Very sick. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma I would love to see you rebuild that spot to the way it was. The farm the horse play area the drawing on the ground. Build the history. When people come to see the history of the land they can see the people living that history now as it should be. We are still here not a novelty or relic to dig up dust off. We are the heart of America and will continue to beat as intended. The land needs its people the people need their land. You send in the request and layout to VP Harris to start the first town of what could many more.
@@NavajoGrandma We have so much to talk about. I tried emailing you again from the email you gave on your genealogy travel’s video. I hope it reaches you.
Yes of course. My Nali spoke several different apache languages. I know we went to a maturation celebration as a child. It was the first time I saw lots of clothing made from tanned and regular deer skin. They spoke what I felt was a really fast Navajo language. Shi nali would say, listen close, you will understand them. So I have & I do get a sense of what they are saying. More relative to us. I love the White Mountain Apaches ways of life. We are all so much alike yet the subtle differences are so beautiful. Are you white mountain apache? Where were your people born & lived? Great comment. Love you, Navajo Grandma
Sorry I reread your comment so you are White Mountain Apache. I wish we didn't charge for research but we do as we travel to where your ancestors lived & gather all kinds of information. We do charge a flat fee which means once you pay we will never ask for more no matter where your research takes us in the Continental USA. If this is helpful. Let me know. Love Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma are you saying you also travel to peoples tribes and find info for them? I know my Grandmother lived in Arizona which is where my Mother visited from Indiana and was told we are in fact Native... Emmitt Orville Bliss is my GGfather. From what I've been told his Mother, Harriet Ballinger, was full W.Mtn.Apache. I'm literally packing my records to move back to FL now. I see Emmitt and his wife, my Great Grandmother Eliza Dickerson are buried in Tucson. She was Shawnee, Saponi, Pawtawwomek, Powhatan and possibly Lakota. My Grandpa died when my Mama was 13. She became a Native Historian to try and teach others what was taken from her. I'm just wondering where my relations are... I appreciate you.
Half guessing here- The Dine’ escaped and stayed protected from the Anasazi, in the canyon community- yes? They even created irrigation systems and had lookouts and guards set around the high places. Am I close??
No the Dine' did not escape from the enemies. There is no such word as Anasazi. This word was made up by the white folks. I am making a short video added this week about that word. The irrigation systems were the rivers that came from the Colorado mountains and aquifers. I have not seen any lookouts like other places. Not in Chaco. I will still give you an A+ for your willing to ask. If you don't ask, you will never know. Navajo Grandma
NOW here is a great & wise Comment. Don't just accept anything, my Nali said, humble yourself even if you do not believe in God. But in doing so. You will Find Him & He will give you truth. When in the end we all will wake up to the entire lies of history that was created foe what? GREED, POWER & CONTROL! It's still happening now. Navajo grandma
@@AccDeleted1 not really, our tribe names are our power, there's no power in navajo, it's like a facelift so to say, people might say no, but if you don't know your native language you are lost and powerless
Well if they were upstream then probably. But don't know the names as they were ranchers and the cattlemen association. Multiple names. I can look it up if the names are still there. Interesting. Navajo Grandma
@@leoshanks7299 Leo I love you so. Great question and I have found this: I hope it helps with the truths of this place. There was rushing waters and a river there. ________________________________________________________ STUDY ON CHACO BY A FEW MEN FROM UNM Water came from Colorado and aquifers and down into the parts of New Mexico. A partial re-excavation by UNM archaeologists of a trench dug during the 1920s has uncovered canals that appear to have been used to reroute rapidly flowing water around a Pueblo Bonito structure. “We know where the water came from, but we need to understand where it was going. Was the water diverted to fields or reservoirs, or simply away from people’s homes,” Wills said. Wills says there is a mountain of research still to be done in this canyon, a lifetime of work for students who want to answer complex questions. He says the unknowns are enormous and the list of possible research questions is long. ________________________________________________________________ There is so much proof but they leave out the oral histories that are deep and answer so many questions. Even you, Leo might burp when I continue this. But like I said, don't just believe Navajo Grandma, get on those stiff knees and bow down and ask God if what I am sharing is true. You need to go to the right source and not scientist, excavators, geologists, etc. Go to the source. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
I’m not sure where you’re going with this Nali? I’m born and in raised Dinetah and am very familiar with many things,…Wetherill is an archaeologist not a scholar of Pueblo or dineh culture. I don’t see the meaning of what you are trying to say. I in fact am white and I don’t want to feel like there is some blame to white people for some misinformation
I'm very happy for you that you know your ancestors' history. I love learning about your family's interesting history. Thank you, you are such a blessing...
Hi Cindy, thank you for taking the time to listen and hear and hopefully learn from these videos of mine. It is so appreciated and brings me joy. Hugs from Navajo Grandma

I pray you hear truth and I said, don't be gullible, don't just accept what is Fake News, get on your knees and ask God. Even in this. He will tell you if it is true or not. I even have challenged you all to do the same about what I speak and present. You need to wake up to what is true and what is not true. Even more so with the Whitehouse and all the evil they are cranking out. Wake up folks I say. Wake up and hear truth not mythology or lies. We need to be true to ourselves and realize greed, power and control is what feeds this false information. This is why Shi Nali, my paternal grandfather said, He will never teach us about mythology for it is false doctrine and leads may away from God. Amen. So now you have it. I hope you enjoyed this eclipse and reverence it, I watched it on tv and went about my day with prayer as always. Met with my children and we had great laughter and happy memories made. This eclipse has only happened twice in our lifetime span so how on earth did these folks make up this hooey about locking yourself indoors. I will speak out against it. False doctrine is blatantly here and loud and clear and being taught by the Navajo Medicine man claims to be and he is Mormon. How does that mix. It does not. Amen. Navajo Grandma
Very interesting content gramma🙏🏻. It teaches much. Partly how important it is to watch one’s back. It’s usually not the principalities and authorities that actually do the dirty work, but our neighbors who are hardened of heart , spirit and mind. Brothers turned on brothers. So much is lost when we loose our elders too soon. I knew the daughter of a former chief from a local tribe who asked her father why natives turned on him and did all the dirty, underhanded politics and backstabbing. He had taken them from bankruptcy and chaos, to a solid financial and community institution. They soon after removed him. He told her ; ‘ there was a white guy and a native sitting next to each other, fishing. The white guy looked at his friends worm box and said “ hey your worms are going to get out buddy “, the native said, “ nah , they’re native worms they won’t get out “. The white guy said “what do you mean by that?” The native said, when one starts to climb out of the box , all the other ones pull it back down.” Then my friend’s father added “ it’s an old black metaphor, but it works for natives too”. In the decades since I heard this , I have seen it happen in community after community, regardless of cultural heritage. God bless and teach us all 💚🙏🏻
Powerful truth you spoke with clarity and the reality stinks to high heaven. But it continues. Why I ran for Navajo Nation President. Too much evil now we have a pedophile as our president and a Communist dictator in the Whitehouse. WE need to stand strong .like now and since years ago. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma amen dear sister. We are now sorted by our living principles . A new people from every tribe and nation.
@@greenman4508 why are you so wise!! I love who you are and your clarity and always with respect!! Love you in Maine!! Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma many year of acting a fool teaches much 🤷♂️. Love you too 💚
Interesting, Has someone written anything telling the Dine side? We have been told the people moved because the lack of water, but you say there was a river running through there in the time of your great grandfather
Thank you for keeping your history alive
I am telling my Dine' side. Finally someone to speak up the truths of what happened instead of swallowing everything we hear and read. Oral history and being raised by my Navajo Nali and Bizhi is powerful and all that history has been handed down from word of mouth from one generation to another. I am telling the truths now and boy some Navajo's will get wedgies as they don't believe in God or anything of the past as their grandparents did not teach them correct principles but they are raised and weened upon mythology. These are false traditions taught to our people to lead them away from Godly truths. Its despicable to hear even my own Navajo people's definition of who Christ is, I almost vomited at the evil. When they say the Holy Ones it is not what my definition is and its way scary. You then realize why they live in poverity and are not progressing. Yet those who know God and are living lives with faith and remembering their ancestral teachings of truths, they are moving forward. There is a difference between light and darkness. Its scary whats being accepted and rejected upon the Navajo Nation. Look to begin with as I ran for Navajo Nation President, who did the people choose? A pedophile. The people know but will never admit it. Sad state of affairs like the whitehouse. We need to stand up for truths not lay down and hope someone else does. Our trails have taught us to stand no matter what. God does live and He is our armor. And so is Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost. These are the true teachings of the Dine' ancestors. Navajo Grandma
Super excellent, thank you for these crucial details⚡️
So appreciate your receptiveness! Hugs galore!. Navajo Grandma
Navajo Grandmother, the truth always remains. Have you ever thought of writing your history in a book. I love your stories.❤.
You sound like my son, mom you need to make a movie of your life. But I am thru you all on TH-cam. This is not all but so much more. You would faint at my life story. It's my elders who's stories you need to hear first. Thank you. Navajo Grandma
Thank you Grandma, Creator bless you and Grandpa. Big hugs, much love❤ Wish we could have gotten together, maybe some day in the future😊
I know! My world keeps getting bigger and schedules to meet. I am thankful. Yes we need to head that way soon again. Your friendship is an honor Amye. Sitting by that fire, sleeping there where you live are happy thoughts. I can imagine what great things you have done to renovate your home. Happy happy thoughts. Happy friend hugs. You started this fire of truth you know. Because of you asking if we were Hebrew started a ring of a truth fire so many are warming themselves and finally defining themselves. Remember your question? You were truly inspired & it's been a topic from all over this world being drawn to truths. But guess what that also opened the door to my Nali or Paternal grandfather's oral histories. Thank you Amye for opening the most insightful question of our lives & history. Hugs forever my friend. Navajo Grandma
We really need to talk. That land should be yours to farm and live on again create a town in his honor. Let’s go for making that happen. So many places taken away need opened back up and the people brought back to their home and way of life. Love you so much 😘🤗
This is true but everyone got chased off and rangers have to be present now to watch you that you don't take anything from your own land there in Chaco Canyon! Very sick. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma I would love to see you rebuild that spot to the way it was. The farm the horse play area the drawing on the ground. Build the history. When people come to see the history of the land they can see the people living that history now as it should be. We are still here not a novelty or relic to dig up dust off. We are the heart of America and will continue to beat as intended. The land needs its people the people need their land. You send in the request and layout to VP Harris to start the first town of what could many more.
@@IAMMEDUSA Sorry, VP Harris doesn't give a darn. I know this and so does many other Dine'. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma We have so much to talk about. I tried emailing you again from the email you gave on your genealogy travel’s video. I hope it reaches you.
Hello Shima, did your Nali ever talk about the Apache'? Im White Mtn Apache and dont have much information. Ty and I appreciate your love for all.
Yes of course. My Nali spoke several different apache languages. I know we went to a maturation celebration as a child. It was the first time I saw lots of clothing made from tanned and regular deer skin. They spoke what I felt was a really fast Navajo language. Shi nali would say, listen close, you will understand them. So I have & I do get a sense of what they are saying. More relative to us. I love the White Mountain Apaches ways of life. We are all so much alike yet the subtle differences are so beautiful. Are you white mountain apache? Where were your people born & lived? Great comment. Love you, Navajo Grandma
Sorry I reread your comment so you are White Mountain Apache. I wish we didn't charge for research but we do as we travel to where your ancestors lived & gather all kinds of information. We do charge a flat fee which means once you pay we will never ask for more no matter where your research takes us in the Continental USA. If this is helpful. Let me know. Love Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma are you saying you also travel to peoples tribes and find info for them? I know my Grandmother lived in Arizona which is where my Mother visited from Indiana and was told we are in fact Native... Emmitt Orville Bliss is my GGfather. From what I've been told his Mother, Harriet Ballinger, was full W.Mtn.Apache. I'm literally packing my records to move back to FL now. I see Emmitt and his wife, my Great Grandmother Eliza Dickerson are buried in Tucson. She was Shawnee, Saponi, Pawtawwomek, Powhatan and possibly Lakota. My Grandpa died when my Mama was 13. She became a Native Historian to try and teach others what was taken from her. I'm just wondering where my relations are... I appreciate you.
@@NavajoGrandma ty for sharing your experience with the tribe... When I visited the reservation last year it was so surreal...
Half guessing here- The Dine’ escaped and stayed protected from the Anasazi, in the canyon community- yes? They even created irrigation systems and had lookouts and guards set around the high places. Am I close??
No the Dine' did not escape from the enemies. There is no such word as Anasazi. This word was made up by the white folks. I am making a short video added this week about that word. The irrigation systems were the rivers that came from the Colorado mountains and aquifers. I have not seen any lookouts like other places. Not in Chaco. I will still give you an A+ for your willing to ask. If you don't ask, you will never know. Navajo Grandma
I will never submit to the religion of the colonizers , great history , thanks for sharing
NOW here is a great & wise Comment. Don't just accept anything, my Nali said, humble yourself even if you do not believe in God. But in doing so. You will Find Him & He will give you truth. When in the end we all will wake up to the entire lies of history that was created foe what? GREED, POWER & CONTROL! It's still happening now.

Ok.
Cool name imo
@@AccDeleted1 not really, our tribe names are our power, there's no power in navajo, it's like a facelift so to say, people might say no, but if you don't know your native language you are lost and powerless
@@Jose-db3hg I know they don’t accept the Navajo name. It’s cool to me nonetheless.
@@Jose-db3hg just to clarify, I like all aspects of the southwest, forgive me if taken the wrong way.
Old Vet Here 😊 Did the Babbitt's Ranch divert the river water 💦 back in the 1800s ?
Well if they were upstream then probably. But don't know the names as they were ranchers and the cattlemen association. Multiple names. I can look it up if the names are still there.
Interesting.
Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma Thank you For taking the time to look that up. Iam researching the atrocities they committed. Old Vet Here 😀
@@leoshanks7299 Leo I love you so. Great question and I have found this: I hope it helps with the truths of this place. There was rushing waters and a river there. ________________________________________________________
STUDY ON CHACO BY A FEW MEN FROM UNM
Water came from Colorado and aquifers and down into the parts of New Mexico. A partial re-excavation by UNM archaeologists of a trench dug during the 1920s has uncovered canals that appear to have been used to reroute rapidly flowing water around a Pueblo Bonito structure. “We know where the water came from, but we need to understand where it was going. Was the water diverted to fields or reservoirs, or simply away from people’s homes,” Wills said.
Wills says there is a mountain of research still to be done in this canyon, a lifetime of work for students who want to answer complex questions. He says the unknowns are enormous and the list of possible research questions is long.
________________________________________________________________
There is so much proof but they leave out the oral histories that are deep and answer so many questions. Even you, Leo might burp when I continue this. But like I said, don't just believe Navajo Grandma, get on those stiff knees and bow down and ask God if what I am sharing is true. You need to go to the right source and not scientist, excavators, geologists, etc. Go to the source. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma I am researching South Rim of Grand Canyon alot Lost from Mother their Thank you for the Intel old Vet Here 😀
@@leoshanks7299 Well good luck because there is tons of information there and its amazing. Enjoy. Navajo Grandma (then share what you find)

Ahxehee shi yazhi!! You are always so kind with so few words of acceptance of truths. Thank you my little eagle. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma 🪶
I’m not sure where you’re going with this Nali? I’m born and in raised Dinetah and am very familiar with many things,…Wetherill is an archaeologist not a scholar of Pueblo or dineh culture. I don’t see the meaning of what you are trying to say. I in fact am white and I don’t want to feel like there is some blame to white people for some misinformation
There are 2 histories there is the white man's version and very biased. I am telling the Native American truth. Navajo Grandma
