In 1851 they suffered a yellow fever epidemic, after which they were presumed extinct. But what happens when a people, a nation, refuses to accept the claim that they are “extinct”? As long as they remember their name for themselves, their origin narrative, who their relatives are, and where their ancestral lands lay, then they will persevere as a people. As they endure, one of their descendants may live to write their story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eI’itoi’s Forgotten Children\u003c\/i\u003e is that story for the Hia-ced O’odham.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eToo often overlooked in the annals of Spanish and Mexican colonial histories, such as that of Padre Eusebio Kino, not to mention utterly ignored by the Americans when they established their reservation system, the Hia-ced O’odham have long awaited the writing of their history. \u003ci\u003eI’itoi’s Forgotten Children\u003c\/i\u003e portrays the resilient hemajkam (nation) that exists today. Based on O’odham oral tradition, including ooshikbina (calendar sticks), this book reasserts Hia-ced O’odham as a unique part of O’odham and Southwest history.","brand":"UNM Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50865080434943,"sku":"9780826371201","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780826371201","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
