Description

Excerpt from The Religious Life of the Zuni Child Having heard of the wonderful cave in this mountain, our little party visited the place, prepared to explore it. Mr. Stevenson and Mr. H. L. Turner entered the fissure in the rock and squeezed through the crevice for sixteen or eighteen feet to where the rock was so solid that they both determined no human creature could penetrate farther. They examined the place most carefully by means of an artificial light. Through a small aperture stones could be thrown to a depth from which no sound returned, but excepting this solitary Opening all was solid, immovable rock. In this cave many plume sticks were gathered. Near the open ing of the cave, or fissure, is a shrine to the Kok-ko, which must be very old, and over and around it are hundreds of the plume sticks and tur gneise and shell beads.
