'raider from the north'

The interactions with new cultures change the Navajo forever. Beginning with Spain, Mexico, New Mexico, and ending with the Union States of the Americas, the Navajo lifestyle plummeted - almost to a point of extinction. In 1864, 8000 Dine’ are exiled to the south central part of New Mexico as part of the American order of peace. Imprisoned and demoralized.
Exodus. In 1868, a treaty between the United States and Navajo Tribe was signed and later ratified giving the Navajos permission to return back to the four sacred mountains. In addition to the return, an allowance of livestock and utensils were given to the Navajos for their occupation. The years were rigid, to say the least, however the locality was glorious than the one 300 miles to the southeast. The population grew rapidly as did their land base. Strange to them those imaginary lines end their allotment. However the Navajos had the largest allotment established by the United States.
A young raider name Stabber was never captured nor his clan family. His heart remained where his stomach cord was buried…he shared the same wild spirit with his war horses (charger, horse thief, and squeezer). Squeezer was recently given to him from a strong family from the Tselani region (which would later become part of the Chinle Agency). Ganado Mucho was headmen of the area along with Grayhorse. The story continues with the raider from the north…little did he know – his journey would begin with the return of the people. He would become prominent headmen among his group. Standing strong with Juan Yellow, Navajo Joe, and Laughing Boy…they would journey way south into old mexico to find strong-will and resolute and more...what lie ahead change them forever...
