The sundial
Our sundial works by perpendicularly positioning a wooden arm on a surface marked with hour lines. When sunlight hits the hand-carved wooden arm, it casts a shadow over the lines, indicating the time of day.
The angle and length of the shadow varies depending on the time and season, allowing us to read the approximate time. These watches were used for centuries before the invention of mechanical and digital watches, and reflect the skill and precision of ancient engineering.
The Sun Dance is a spiritual rite that has always been practiced by the populations of the North American Indian Nations and the bison was considered a sacred being with strong powers and the messenger of the Great Spirit.
Each town has its own characteristics, for example, in the Sioux rite the dance lasted several days, during which the dancers danced around a large log decorated with bison bones, placed in the center of the town, looking at the sky and without eating food. This was done to request the power of the Great Spirit through their bodily penances.
The Sun Dance is the ceremony of consciousness, strength and purity and is in the highest place on the spiritual plane to thank the Great Spirit for the gift of life
