Who Was Dan Evehema?
Grandfather Dan was the spiritual head of his clan and Hopi village (the village of Hotevilla) and he was among the highest of the Clan Fathers. He was also the principal spokesman of Elderly Elders- who were the last and stalwart keepers of the Great Covenant made with Maasaw in about 1120A.D.
He was a well known medicine man and healer; and when he wasn't farming or healing he was actively engaged at Hotevilla with other members of his clan in ceremonial and community activities.
Grandfather Dan was the last of the traditionalists, meaning he lived the 'old ways.' He never had electricity or running water in his home and he grew his corn with song and prayer.
Born in Old Orabi in 1893, Grandfather Dan Evehema crossed over into the Spirit World on January 16, 1999 at the beautiful age of 106.
