Well Thank you!:) You make it sound so easy! Is it really that easy? I’ll have to give it a try.;) Love & Light, Lynella.

Was that from the dig in the Roanoke Lake (located in Northampton, near town of Gaston) or in Gaston township itself? I know that they’ve dug the Roanoke Lake but I didn’t know of anything going on in Gaston. For those of you who don’t know, Gaston is my family’s stomping ground.
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13549Yes, I knew that and then I saw the name Poythres (Very Sorry If I Misspelled That) on one of the road names the other day when i was looking at maps. That’s so awsome! I’ve been trying to spend some time looking into the history of that area for Felicia, but she’s right. It’s not easy to find. Why is that?:) Love & Light, Lynella.
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13550Well I must be failling to make the grade.
This is an American Euro painting of a northern war with little to do with the Yesah people, out of context on all sides wrong place wrong people.
Perhaps I did not say earlier we need a post contact pattern that is based on the original Yesah peoples designs.
Tech posted earlier an Iroquoian ceremony that had Souian (Yesah?) elements to it, during this ceremony volleys of arrows were shot 3 times towards the Sun.
Lets keep it simple just the configuration of the arrows in black and white and then we can color the rest the way each member wants.!
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13551OH TOM,
I’m so glad you’re here!:) How the heck are ya?;) I think that is the most wonderful and best idea yet! YES, LET’S DO THAT!!!:D I think it is a perfect idea. Way, cool!:cool: Thank You Tom. Love & Light, Lynella.
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13552I did?
Can you sketch what you mean, Tom and have it posted?

December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13559Hello, there’s so many variations to this we are all going to have to do our part, who we include and how.
I see my Cousin Barb had done a posting on tattoos, and her family that was tatooed is my family members aswell. Our Great Grand mothers family had members with tattoos on thier faces. I hope Barb does post again she has sufered a great loss recently.
Anyway, the arrow pattern has to be based on historical correctness that is in keeping with what we know, look at the old paintings discussed earlier and you’ll see images of what Iam refereing to.
Please use 3 arrows and place them in a configuration that relates to us all!
I’ll see what I can get done and post it this week, Iam very sick and only out of bed for short times.
Please pray for Cousin Barbs hard times to be eased.
All the best, Tom
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13563Tom,
I will most certainly pray for Barb and also for you to get well fast. Flu? I know it’s been going around. You drink lots of fluids! I’m worried now about both of you.
Yes, I agree with your description of how this project should be, when you are well enough, do give me something to look at. In the mean time I’ll try to find these pictures you’re referring to.
God Bless You and Barb. Love & Light, Lynella.
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13567I wanted, when we first discussed this, to tie them together at the bottom, like the Iroquois feather symbol on the quarter. At least, I think it is the quarter. And add a red feather to represent everyone of this forum.

Howdy! I need to see what you two are refering to. Cause’ I’m totally clueless. I let Glenn use the computer this morning. So I am just now getting going on stuff! Love & Light, Lynella.
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #13754Have you seen this insignia?
http://www.sappony.org/governance_council.htm
If you hold your cursor over the picture, it tells what each item represents, which says…
“The stars represent strong ties to faith.”
“The three arrows are the long-standing tribal symbol of the Sappony and are represented by the three arrowheads.”
“The three main crops represent our subsistence while in High Plains with tobacco occupying a central role.”
“The seven feathers bound together represent the seven close-knit families of High Plains.”

that’s interesting I hadn’t seen that yet. Of coarse my cursor wouldn’t make anything cool happen but cool consept!
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #14082Well, just for giggles I’m going to embroider a patch, just a small one and see how it comes out. It will have the arrows over the small Medicine wheel with the whirlwind design around the border.
I got out my beads this morning and I couldn’t see them let alone hold on to the darn needle and deal with those tiny little beads. So, tomorrow after my pre-op check and ultrasound, I’ll have Glenn stop at hobby lobby so I can get more embroidery floss.
Love & Light, Lynella.;)
December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #14103L
Preop? What’s this? Should you be messing with this? Or is it something to do? I finished the final chapter to my dissertation following surgery. Only time I could get people to leave me alone.
Take care and keep us informed.

December 2, 2004 at 9:54 pm #14107Cindy,
Oh, it’s a nothin’, I promiss! Yeah, the embroidery is just a something to do.;) I want a small patch for my vest. I’ll take a photo & e-mail it to ya’. I’ll fill ya’ in on the other later, after I get those tests. Love & Light, Lynella.:)
