THE PENDANT IS SIGNED ACHIYA LADABA 2000
The Knifewing, or the "Achiya La-da-ba" in the Zuni language, is a Zuni war god
who also protects the Zuni pueblo from harm. Zunis believe that their war gods
live in lakes in New Mexico and Arizona and appear as needed. To the Zunis,
the Knifewing's role is similar to that of a patron saint.
