Product Description This beautiful sterling silver pendant contains genuine turquoise, inlaid in sterling silver channel in a shield shape. The turquoise is a nice combination of greens with a little bit of blue. The hallmark is “Danny” and “Sterling”, stamped on the back. This pendant comes complete with a 20″ silverplated Cobra chain which can be easily upgraded for a few extra dollars, just ask us about it. Some Native American jewelry is unsigned (no hallmark); because of this, we are not absolutely certain of this pendant’s origin. If this is a signed piece with a hallmark, we are unsure of the artist’s full name and tribe.

In the 2000 U.S. census, 298,197 people claimed to be fully or partly of Navajo ancestry. The Navajo Nation constitutes an independent governmental body which manages the Navajo Indian reservation in the Four Corners area of the United States. The traditional Navajo language is still largely spoken throughout the region, although most Navajo speak English fluently as well. Navajo refer to themselves in their native language as Diné, which is translated as “the People” in English. Zuni Tribe The Zuni (also spelled Zuñi by the Spanish and in early 20th Century ethnological texts) or A:shiwi (as the Zuni refer to themselves in their own language) are a Native American tribe, one of the Pueblo peoples, most of whom live in the Pueblo of Zuni on the Zuni River, a tributary of the Little Colorado River, in western New Mexico, United States. Zuñi is 55 km (35 miles) south of Gallup, New Mexico and has a population of about 12,000, with over 80% being Native Americans. They are known for their unique culture and cuisine.

Native American tomahawks are very popular because of their iconic look. There are also a lot of designs to choose from. There is much to learn as we understand the great importance of the tomahawk throughout history. We’ll learn how it is made, its importance to the Indians and the changes it has undergone throughout the years.
One of the most prevailing and memorable items used in combat are tomahawks as seen in many western movies. The tomahawk is used as a decorative and conversation piece, providing hours of intellectual analysis although no one could guess they would have much use in today’s modern age. The Native American tomahawk is seen as an icon which was used during war. North American tribes have been the prominent users of this item. The name of this Indian weapon, tomahawk, came from an Algonquian word.
The original look of the Native tomahawk was a stone head secured to a wooden handle with leather. Another way the tomahawk could have been made was with a wooden handle which was secured in a bored hole on the stone. When the Europeans infiltrated the New World, there were other kinds of tomahawks made. Just as the hatchet we know of today, they were made of metal. They were also known as trade tomahawks. The initial use of Native American tomahawks was for hand to hand combat. In addition, it was used as both a mid or long range weapon to be thrown at the attacking enemy. Like other kinds of artifacts, the tomahawk was also used for ceremonial purposes. In some tribes, the tomahawk was laid to the ground during council meetings. It meant war will commence and it was approved, when a leader took the tomahawk from the ground. It meant that the warfare had ended if the tomahawk was buried. This is where the famous line, “bury the hatchet” came from.
Aside from its social and historical context, the allure of the tomahawk today rests upon the ornate and impeccable detailing on the handles as well as on the base of the stone weapon. Artists today craft tomahawks with ornate details and natural coverings made of leather and fur. The result was a beautiful piece of art which could be used as wall decor. For those who want to add to their historical pieces of cultural Indian artifacts, these very unique Native American tomahawks have become a great item. The tomahawk becomes a special gift today from a Native American to a person of importance during a tribal meeting.
