About the artist:
Daughter of Peggy Black - Basketweaver: One of the Douglas Mesa basket weavers, there wasn't much question about what Peggy Rock Black would choose to pursue in life. She was born into a family of weavers before she married into an equally talented family of weavers. Willow baskets were her predestined avocation. Peggy developed her inherent skills well, and has found her niche by becoming one of the few weavers who can successfully incorporate pictorial images into her baskets. See full biography |

Small Duck
All the people
of the new world were glad that the swamp beasts were dead, for now the wading
birds and the smaller water animals could build their homes among the reeds and
willows without fear of harm from these enemies. "Now there will be more land
on which we can live!" exclaimed First Woman? More about this legend
Basketry
Basketry
is a woman's industry, which is also pursued by the nadle (he changes), hermaphrodites,
or men skilled in the arts and industries of both men and women. Basketry, however,
is not classified with textile fabrics (yistl'o), but with sewing (nalkhad). It
is of interest also that, while the basket is in progress, the sewer is untouched
and avoided by the members of her family? More about this legend
