As a rule a number of weddings take place on
the morning of the Corn Dance. These wed-
dings are performed in the church by the Catholic
priest. After the ceremony the entire wedding
party forms in a parade and proceeds to the
plaza where the dance is held. The figure of
the Holy Virgin is carried under a canopy and
deposited in a temporary shrine on the plaza.
The priests in their robes and vestments accom-
pany the procession. The Pueblo Indian is an
industrious and intelligent citizen, who alter-
nately labors and then relaxes himself in games
and ceremonies. His gods are innumerable-
gods of harvest and of famine, of sun and rain
and snow, of peace and war, etc.
