BLACK HILLS: SACRED HILLS by Tom Charging Eagle Ron Zeilinger 'The Lakota (Sioux) have a name for the special area of South Dakota known as the Black Hills, "Wamakaognaka E'cante" which means that they are "the heart of everything that is." In this way the Lakota attribute great spiritual significance to the Black Hills. These sacred hills are a spiritual center as well. The dark green pines and rocky peaks represent a place of prayer and spiritual sustenance for generations - since time immemorial, the Lakota say. Thus Black Hills: Sacred Hills is a book offering a reverent and simple definition of the Black Hills as understood by the Lakota people. The narration is in a free verse as spoken so eloquently by the Sioux. In a time when there is so much legal language being used to define the issues relating to the Black Hills, this work is truly a refreshing and natural explanation of why the "Hills" are sacred to the Lakota people...'
