Yeibechai Navajo Rug

This 1970's Navajo Yeibichai Rug .You have the 10 blue masked dancers each dancing with a rattle,cedar branch,and medicine bag.They are sporting concho belts with turquoise.The elevated foot lets you know they are dancing.The Yei is the Diety ,always forward facing.He is holding a weasel.I truly dont know why.I've been told the figure on the opposite side is a fellow who brings comic relief as this ceremony can go on for 10 days.This is a very special rug.

Dimensions are 82" X 47"
