Jemez Pueblo officials and tribal members were among a group of 350 New Mexicans who traveled to the World Trade Center site in New York over the weekend to express their solidarity with victims of September 11's deadly terrorist attack.

The Pueblo delegation held a private, sacred healing ceremony at the site in lower Manhattan on Saturday. They later re-enacted parts of it at nearby Battery Park.

New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani also met with the tribe and other New Mexico officials and representatives who came to his city. He accepted a piece of pottery and a drum from the Pueblo.
