Aelkaandt
A bread made from sweet corn which is first parched then ground on
a metate and then chewed by women and girls and placed in a mass in
a flat basket; this must be either of yellow or white corn, the blue
corn is never used for this purpose. A mush is made of either white
or yellow corn meal and the former preparation which has become yeast

fire) and lined with shucks into which the mush is poured, it is then
covered with shucks after which earth is thrown over it and a large
fire built which burns all night. In the early morning the cinders
and coals are removed when the bread is found to be baked.

generosity of their neighbors. The girl and boy left the lodge after
having partaken of the sacred meal mixture. After refreshment the
song-priest lifted each mask with his left hand beginning with Hasjelti,
and first extending his right hand, which held a fine large crystal,
toward the heavens, he touched the under part of each mask with the
crystal; four times he passed over the masks. The choir sang but no
rattle was used. The crystal was afterward placed on th
