Tibetan.Dine' Turquoise Link.

I am continually amazed on the parallels and direct links that exist culturally between the Dine' Naiton of the American southwest and the Tibetan people of Asia!

Astounding!

Lately I have been researching this topic and have found great things!

The most exciting knowledge gained is that the Tibetan use/used TURQUOISE as a weapon.
So ADORNMENT was like putting on armor....what a thought to ponder. The faith of the people of Tibet
is much like the faith of the Dine'.

This quote took and held my attention:

"The tenacity of the gem was utilised most effectively b the Tibetan hero Gesar who fashioned his arrowheads from the finest turquoise."

Thankful.
