Heard Museum, Phoenix - Arizona

Waouw.... quel beau musee, interessant, 11 galeries, restaurant et cafetariat.

Toutes ou presque les nations Ameriendiennes sont y sont representees, avec bien entendu les explications adequates pour chacune.

Tres belle collection de poterie, de poupee 'Katsina',  

ainsi que d'habits venant des quatre coins des USA.

L'histoire de ceux et celles qui ont fait les legendes indiennes que nous avons vu et revu dans nos bons vieux Western, Geronimo est un bel exemple, tout un pavillon lui est d'ailleurs dedie. J ai eu la chance en ce mois de mars d'assister a un spectacle fabuleux des danceurs de Hoop en costume, chant et dance des Indiens d'Amerique.
