* "Help Find the Missing Corner of the Hopi Tablet To Prove Their Creation Story: Seeking Answers in the Chapel of the Tablet, Africa" (2017-09-09, by Thomas O Mills, Hopi Cultural Center in Second Mesa, Arizona, USA; via ancient-origins.net/ancient-places-americas/help-find-missing-corner-hopi-tablet-prove-their-creation-story-seeking-021613) [archive.is/Uqn3v] [begin excerpt]: There is one item that the Hopi seek. The missing corner of the Fire Clan Tablet.
In legend, Masaw guided the Hopi across a large ocean, always traveling east, after a great flood that covered the Earth. He gave the Hopi a small stone tablet that gave the Hopi permission to occupy this land and in doing so, proved that he existed. It is said that before he gave the stone tablet to them, he broke off the bottom left corner and told them he was going to take the corner back with him across the ocean and that someday in the future their ‘true brother’ would return with the missing corner and prove their creation story. [...]
When you compare the tablets you will notice that Water’s version left off the pyramid on the bottom right-hand corner when he described the tablet in his book. I believe he did this because he knew the controversy that might have taken place back in 1963 if it was included. What could the Hopis have known about the Pyramids? [end excerpt]
