Jeff King (Navajo)
Jeff King (1865?–1964; known in Navajo as ''Hashkeh-yilth-e-yah'') was a US Army scout from 1891 to 1911, and went on to become a highly respected (singer, or medicine man).
According to army records, King was born in Rock Springs, New Mexico, in 1865; however, his family's records indicated that he may have been born as early as 1851. He lived for most of his life in Pinedale, New Mexico on the Navajo Reservation.〔("Diné scout lies buried at Arlington" ), ''The Navajo Times,'' January 21, 2009〕
When the United States joined World War II in 1941 and young Navajos left the reservation to serve in the army, King performed a ritual for them called ''Where the Two Came to Their Father'' that tells the story of two young heroes who go to the hogan of their father, the Sun, and return with the power to destroy the monsters that are plaguing their people. The two-day ceremony, which included songs and elaborate sand paintings, was meant to keep the young men's souls healthy as they went off to fight, away from their land and their people.
At the time, an artist and ethnologist named Maud Oakes was living on the reservation. With King's permission, she recorded the ceremony, including the sand-paintings. She published the text and her paintings, with commentary by mythologist Joseph Campbell, as ''Where the Two Came to Their Father: A Navaho War Ceremonial''.〔Jeff King and Maud Oakes, ''Where the Two Came to Their Father: A Navaho War Ceremonial'', with commentary by Joseph Campbell. New York: Pantheon Press, 1943. 3rd edition, Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1991, ISBN 0-691-02069-8〕 It is one of the most complete extant recordings of a Navajo ritual.〔Larry Evers, review of ''Where the Two Came to Their Father: A Navajo War Ceremonial Given by Jeff King'', by Maud Oakes and Joseph Campbell, ''American Indian Quarterly'', 18, no. 1 (Winter 1994), pp. 96-97〕
King was also known to perform two of the other great Navajo ceremonies: the (Blessing Way) and (Enemy Way).
King died and was buried in January 1964. He was the first Navajo buried at Arlington National Cemetery, near Washington, D.C.
