Animal FAQS: Not traditionally a Zuni fetish. Due to their reputation for abundant reproduction, the rabbit is associated with birthing and fertility. The rabbit is the special guardian of women in childbirth and is associated with safe childbirth and a long life for children. He represents gentleness, charm, virtue, serenity and awareness of others.
Stone FAQS: There are two types of alabaster: 1) gypsum and 2) calcite. Both are easy to work, with an attractive appearance, and have been used for making a variety of artworks and objects, especially small carvings. Gypsum is a very soft stone that can be scratched with a fingernail, whereas Calcite needs a knife for carving. The making of Alabaster jewelry and carvings dates back centuries ago as evidenced by the Greek, Chinese and ancient Egyptians. Weren't there alabaster carvings in King Tut's tomb?
