Pendleton® Star Watchers MouseRug Coaster Rug symmetrical patterns and multiple bordersSince ancient times, Native Americans have practiced astronomy to predict the arrival of the brightest stars. The Pawnee people of the Central Plains honored the Pleiades Cluster, and believed the Pole Star was a protective chief who shone highest in the night sky.
