About Window Rock, Arizona
Window Rock, a community of 2,500 people in Apache County right against the New Mexico line, serves as the Navajo Nation's capital. Before 1936 hardly anyone lived here, and Navajos knew the place only by a ceremonial name, Niʼ Ałníiʼgi, which means "Center of the World." As Commissioner of Indian Affairs, John Collier chose this spot to house the Navajo Central Agency and proposed making that ceremonial name official.
Navajos resisted and soon made fun of the idea, so the Bureau of Indian Affairs named the agency for the sandstone arch north of the government buildings instead. In Navajo the arch is Tségháhoodzání, meaning rock with a hole through it, and in English the name became Window Rock. The arch is one of four places where medicine men fill woven water jugs for the Water Way Ceremony, Tóee, a prayer for plenty of rain.
- A chamber shaped like a hoganJohn Collier chose the site for the Navajo Nation Council Chamber in 1933, and Public Works Administration money built it in the mid-1930s. The two-level red sandstone octagon echoes a hogan and faces the arch. Its east door, the traditional Navajo direction, is framed by carved wood panels by Charles Shirley. In 1942 Gerald Nailor Sr. was commissioned to paint its murals, The History and Progress of the Navajo Nation. It became a National Historic Landmark in 2004.
- The Code Talkers memorialWindow Rock holds the Navajo Nation's memorial to the World War II code talkers. On May 4, 1942, 29 Navajo men joined the Marine Corps as Platoon 382, its first all-Navajo platoon, and they built the code themselves. During the first two days at Iwo Jima, six code talkers worked without rest and passed more than 800 messages with no mistakes. In 2000 a law gave the original 29 the Congressional Gold Medal.
- A museum that moved twiceThe Navajo Tribe opened its first museum in 1961 in a small building at the tribal fairgrounds, then moved it in 1982 into the Navajo Arts and Crafts Store, in its back room. In 1997 it finally got a $7 million building of its own, designed as a modern hogan beside the zoo. In 2018 the museum borrowed from the National Archives a copy of the 1868 treaty, which set up the reservation and ended the imprisonment at Fort Sumner.
- A zoo that began with YogiWhen the 1963 Navajo Nation Fair ended, a bear was left behind. It was named Yogi and became the first animal at the tribal zoo. The Navajo Nation Zoological and Botanical Park now looks after about 100 animals of more than 50 species, nearly all of them native and most of them injured or orphaned. Since 2016 its Golden Eagle Sanctuary has housed eagles that can't go free and supplied molted feathers to Native Americans.
