Here are the Editor's Picks articles for the Native American Site! These are the top ten articles that your Native American Editor feels are most important for you to read. Enjoy!

1. Pow-Wow Information for First Timers
General information for those attending their first Pow-Wow or Gathering. Knowing a little about the activities will make it even more enjoyable.

2. Finding a Teacher can be a Challenge
Finding a teacher of natural healing within the American Indian community can be a challenge. There are reasons for the obstacles a prospective student must work through, and these are based in history.

3. My First Pow-Wow
It was over 20 years ago, but this experience remains vivid in both my mind and heart. It changed my life and set me on a journey which continues.

4. Pendleton Blankets - A Circle Completed
It took almost a century, but Pendleton Woolen Mills completed a Circle. It began with designers inspired by their customers. Now the customers are the designers.

5. The Medicine Wheel
A Medicine Wheel might be described as a bunch of rocks laid in a circle on the ground. But these have been constructed for thousands of years and represent the Sacred Circle of Life and a balance we each must strive for.

6. Our Constitution and the Iroquois
This week we celebrated the birth of our Nation. The Founding Fathers emphasized the role of Divine Providence in their efforts, but the Iroquois Confederation may have shared a role.

7. Trading Blanket Event
A Trading Blanket is not just a traditional form of commerce for Native Americans. It is a social event, with a few simple rules, and a time for both sharing and trading.

8. Knapping – An Ancient Skill Changing History
Knapping stone to make blades and points is a skill utilized for eons. It is still used by indigenous people around the world, hobbyists, and scientists. Knapping leaves evidence, and this may change the record of human habitation in the Americas.

9. Navigating Pow-Wow Calendars on the Internet
There is so much information! Searching for an event can be time consuming and frustrating. Where are the good listings?

10. Sacred Land, to be Respected and Protected
We have been losing Sacred Land at an alarming rate for years. The lure of development and its financial reward seems to outweigh the value of preservation. Here’s information for those planning to visit a Sacred Site.
