The Gift of Life
PENDLETON® Legendary Wool Blanket
THE GIFT OF LIFE PENDLETON®Legendary Wool Blanket. Native American beliefs are
closely tied to the natural world. Universally, rain - and water itself -
is considered to be life-giving and life-sustaining. For
all tribes, daily activities revolve around rain and water. In the Northwest,
rivers and precipitation are abundant. Fishing provides food and dry shelters
are important. In the Central Plains, rainfall keeps the grasslands lush for
grazing buffalo and other game. In the arid Southwest, great care is taken
to preserve each drop. Everywhere, rain and
water are crucial for the cultivation of crops and the continuance of life.
Running water symbolizes constant life. Rain clouds mean good prospects. A
rain drop means GOOD LUCK. The traditional rain-dance is a call for fertility,
growth and prosperity. The Gift of Life Legendary blanket
summons, welcomes and praises this precious element with symbols representing
mountains, rivers, "Tawa" the sun-god, lightning, clouds, corn and
rain itself. Size 64 x 80 inches. Composition:
82% pure wool; 18% cotton warp.
