The Winter Solstice Altars at Hano Pueblo

“The Winter Solstice Altars at Hano Pueblo” by Jesse Walter Fewkes is a book about the Winter Solstice ceremonies of all the families of East Mesa. Walpi, commonly called by the natives Hopiki, “Hopi pueblo,” began its history as a settlement of Snake clans that had united with the Bear phratry. From time to time this settlement grew in size by the addition of the Ala, Pakab, Patki, and other phratries of lesser importance. Among important increments in modern times may be mentioned several clans of Tanoan ancestries, such as the Asa, Honani, and the like. The last mentioned are now domiciled in a pueblo of their own called Hano; they have not yet, like the others, lost their language nor been merged into the Hopi people, but still preserve intact many of their ancient customs.
