Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 The legend sounds more jewish to me... Yai-owa = Yehovah or Yahweh Masauwa = Moses Muski = Misr (Egypt) lake = red sea New homeland = Israel. I'm stumped on Bahanna, though. vediculture, "vrnparker" <vrnparker> wrote: <<The Hopis insist that their place of origin was Sibapu or Sibapuni, in an "Underworld" known as Kiva. They were cruelly oppressed by the "spirit" leaders and priests of the ghostly kingdom of Muski. When they had reached the limits of their endurance, they begged their chief, Yai-Owa (Yavha?), to lead them out of bondage. Yai-Owa called on Masauwa (Maheshvara?), to remove them from Muski (Musaka?) and lead them to a new homeland. Some White men called Bahanna - a term similar to Vahana, the Sanskrit word for "mover; transporter; vehicle; ship; vessel; boat" - led them across a great lake to the new homeland. Yaponche, the Hopi Wind God, blew them there. Yah is an ancient Indian word for "Great Lord;" Ponch and Pani were ancient Sanskrit words for "Phoenician.">> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
