This is a Native American wall hanging that hangs on one of our walls, in our house. It was bought as a souvenir from Grand Canyon, Arizona (USA). It is made of eagle feathers, leather strips, some form of cotton batting, and colorful beads. This is only twelve years old and it was made by westernized Native Americans. The eagle was and still is held sacred by virtually all Native American tribes. Its feathers were awarded as badges of bravery to those deemed worthy of the honor.
