GALLUP, NEW MEXICO
often called the "Last Frontier", is on the
border of the great Navajo Indian Reservation,
z which comprises 15,000,000 acres of land and
48,000 souls, ever increasing. Navajos are
famed for their blankets and hand-made silver
jewelry set with turquoise. More articles of
Indian origin are marketed from Gallup than
from any other city in America.
It is also distinguished as the "Indian Capi-
tal", many tribes of Indians from the four
cardinal points being neighbors and visitors,
especially to the Inter-Tribal Indian Cere-
monial, which is held annually during the last
week of August. The Hopi, Zuni, Acoma, La-
guna, Apache, (3 tribes) Utes, Sioux and
many tribes of the Rio Grande take part in
this colorful event.
Gallup is near the Continental Divide, in o
the beautiful Red Mesa country, with its Ice
Caves, Inscription Rock and scenic grandeur to
attract artists and tourists "off the beaten
path."
