Thunderbird: Etched Copper Pendant #2
Great claps of thunder and brilliant flashes of lightning are attributed to this mythological bird …hence, its name. Known for its intelligence and great power, the Thunderbird is found in legends passed down through generations of The First Nations of North America.
Some of these tribes recite tales of the Thunderbird as a mysterious shapeshifter. The Thunderbird can lift and pull back his beak, much like a mask, and remove his feathers as though they are only a cape, revealing a human form underneath.
A common theme throughout Thunderbird legends, this great & powerful bird is attributed with protecting the nations on the earth from the serpents of the lower world. The highly revered figure can be found in prehistoric petroglyphs and pictographs across the United States and Canada, indicating its long and widespread importance.
Echoing the richly symbolic Native American legend of the Thunderbird, this original hand-crafted pendant is intended as a potent amulet symbolizing your own inner strength, power and wisdom and a reminder of the unseen guardians that watch over us.
