What Hopi Indians Need to Know About Themselves!

[Guest guest]

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.

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.">>
