Pueblo religion is village religion. Each pueblo holds its own ceremonies, its own societies and its own account of emergence into this world from those below, and of arrival at a middle place where the people were told to stay. The kiva, a chamber usually entered from above, is where much of the work is done, and the small opening in its floor marks the place of emergence.
The ceremonial year is divided between the seasons and, at many pueblos, between moieties or societies, with responsibility for particular ceremonies held by named groups rather than by the village at large. Rain is the constant subject, in a country where the difference between a harvest and a failure is a few weeks of weather.
Almost every pueblo restricts what may be recorded, photographed or repeated, and several close their villages to visitors on ceremonial days. That restriction is not uniform and it is not the atlas's to interpret, so what is described here is the institutions rather than any ceremonial detail. It is worth stating why the restriction exists. Spanish suppression in the seventeenth century, followed by American administrative bans on ceremonies well into the twentieth, taught these communities that what is written down can be used against them.
