The Pueblo thought Kachinas were ancestral spirits who returned with the clouds and rain to help their people. Over 300 different Kachinas were believed to survive. Pueblo Indians believed that these spirits once lived among the people, but they became disappointed when not enough attention was paid to them. Before leaving the Kachinas taught their people to dance. Pueblo held religious festivals and ceremonies in which they asked the Kachinas to bring rain and make their crops grow. They used drums and rattles in the dances during the ceremonies. They often danced in masks and chanted.

When a boy turned 13, he was invited to the kiva where the identity of the Kachinas was revealed to him. Girls were not brought to the kiva, but they were also told the secret of the Kachina.

The modern Pueblo people are the direct desecndants of the Anasazi and other peoples of the Southwest such as Mogollon and Hohokam as well. There is a direct continum over time from those older people. Pottery, buildings, farming techniques, kachina religion and everything else that make the Pueblo people distinct are from there ancestors the Anasazi or Ancstoral Pueblo peoples and they are mostly known as today. Of course these are living cultures and practices changed and evoled over time. Only newer tradtions that clearly come from the Spanish are not from the Anasazi. One example of this would be the Moros y Cristianos festivals in San Juan or the running of bulls at Jemez.

how were the choctaw indians and the pueblo are alike

i can't do it

There still are Pueblo Indians living today, they refer to themselves as the Hopi and the Navajo. They live in impoverished slums in reservations.

Before European contact they lived in complex multistoried apartment complexes (a few still do). It is assumed that they had a sophisticated and technologically advanced society.

Because they were not able to practice their native religion

Pueblo cloths were traditionally made using a weaving technique known as backstrap weaving, which involves a simple loom that is anchored to the weaver's body. The process begins with spinning wool or cotton fibers into yarn, which is then dyed using natural pigments. Weavers create intricate patterns and designs that often reflect cultural symbols and stories. The finished cloths are used for various purposes, including clothing, blankets, and ceremonial items.

no there is not a pueblo ritual

Most were forced not to follow Christianity but were forced to follow the catholic religion and after years of having this integrated into their lives some kept the religion but most decided to revert back to their own religion and stop being catholic.Some of the measure the Spanish practiced were incredibly harsh, whipping and killing native priests and cutting hands off.

After about 80 years of increasingly harsh oppression of their traditional beliefs by the Spanish they had the successful Pueblo Revolt of 1680. They killed and drove all the Spanish soldiers, friars, priests, settlers and some sympathizers south to El Paso and on to Chihuahua. When the Spanish returned in 1692 to 1700 they changed their approach. The Pueblos people were allowed to openly practice their own religion. Gradually, some aspects of the religion combined in the eastern Pueblos and today many people are both. Also being Christian offered social advantages in the Spanish colonial society over 300 years. The Hopi and Zuni never did adopt Christianity (at Hopi all the Priests and converts were killed in 1700) until some started to in the late 19th century with the arrival of American missionaries.

Yes! That is how they got their name.

Homes made out of adobe, sund-dried brick.

gone are the days of using feathers (unless you shoot longbow). these days people shoot with plasic fletches (also known as vanes) and also spin wings (also known as curly vanes).but They all do the same thing they stabilize the flight of the shaft by providing slight drag on the rear of the arrow.
