- Description
- Description
- The Toppenish Creek Ceremonial Grounds at White Swan, WA, were the scene on July 8, tp72, of an event of great importance to the Yakima Nation. Mount Adams, a heavily forest peak towering 12,307 feet was being returned to these American Indian people by the U.S. Gov.. This beautiful creation of nature, shown on the cover of this album, is scared to the Yakimas, who believe it was placed there by the Creator to remind them that they are not the most important thing on earth. The singers wish this album to honor the returning of Mount Adams to the Yakima People. Members of the Yakima Nation preserve much of their traditional culture. They have established longhouses at Satus, Wapato, White Swan, and Toppenish. The longhouses serve as community centers for General Council meetings, educational and recreational activities, funerals and ceremonial and religious functions. Side A: Five War Dances, Owl Dance Side B:War Dance, Circle Dance, Owl Dance, Circle Dance, Two Owl Dances
