Holding sacred places together through dance -- Conclusion Summary "This book examines the construction of memory in two indigenous sacred sites in the US and Mexico. It juxtaposes two relationships, the Chemehuevi people and their ties with the Old Woman Mountains of the East Mojave Desert, and the Caxcan people and their ties with Tlachialoyantepec in Zacatecas, Mexico. This research outlines a personal journey, a process of making connections through indigenous decolonial methodologies, and a research project in histories of both the Chemehuevi and Caxcan and their relationships to sacred mountains. This work emphasizes cultural engagements with performative and phenomenological insights as having historic preservation value"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Description based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on May 05, 2023) Subject Chemehuevi Indians -- California -- Ward Valley -- Religion Mountains -- California -- Ward Valley -- Religious aspects Sacred space -- California -- Ward Valley Oral tradition -- California -- Ward Valley Cazcan Indians -- Mexico -- Zacatecas (State) -- Religion Mountains -- Mexico -- Zacatecas (State) -- Religious aspects Sacred space -- Mexico -- Zacatecas (State) Oral tradition -- Mexico -- Zacatecas (State) Mountains -- Religious aspects Oral tradition Sacred space California -- Ward Valley Mexico -- Zacatecas (State) Form Electronic book LC no. 2022037832 ISBN 9780816548682 0816548684
