Kinaald, the ceremony associated with the onset of a girls puberty, is an important Navajo rite within the Blessingway complex. Derived from the experiences of Changing Woman, the puberty ceremony has been passed through generations and continues to be observed throughout Navajoland.An acknowledged classic, Kinaald remains the most complete 'outsider' account of this important ceremony. Charlotte Frisbies lucid description takes the reader through the fourday ritual, describing sequence, daily activities, restrictions, observances that include the girls race toward the east, and an analysis of the ceremonial music, complete with notations and translation.To give readers a better sense of why, Frisbie relates the beliefs and practices expressed in Kinaald to origin accounts conveyed by medicine people and to explanations and discussions with other Navajos.
