Zuni Pueblo (She-we-na) art frequently features the eagle as a powerful sacred symbol. In Zuni culture, the eagle (often called a "prey god" or guardian of the upper world/sky direction) represents strength, vision, enlightenment, prayer-carrying to the divine, and connection to higher realms. Eagles and eagle dancers appear in fetishes, jewelry, pottery, murals, and wall art.
