Littleton’s Hidden Sacred-Shamanic Landscape:

Sacred Stones, Vision Quest, and the Nashobah Praying Indians

 

Presented by the Prayers in Stone Project founders and Littleton residents: Sagamore Strong Bear Medicine & Historian Daniel V. Boudillion. 

 

Littleton is sacred ground.  We walk and live amongst a Native-made Spirit-dwelling landscape, a shamanic-world hidden just out of sight, set aside in 1654 by the Nashobah Praying Indians to preserve this sacred place.  Journey with us as we explore a world of ceremonial stone constructions, from antiquity to modern times, hidden all around us: prayers to Creator built of stone, spirit summoning enclosures, vision seats, spirit portals, manitou stones, solstice sunrise welcoming sites, sacred turtle effigies, serpent rows, and earthen dance-rings to name a few.  Tread softly here, this landscape lives, and is a place of communion between the Great Spirit and the human spirit. 


Strong Bear Medicine is the Sagamore of the Nashobah Praying Indians and spiritual custodian of these ancient sacred sites.  Daniel V. Boudillion is a Littleton historian, author, and sacred sites visionary.
