Native American sunset ceremony

GUTHRIE – Hundreds of people have gathered to hear about the history of American Indians here in Oklahoma.

Tribal chants and drums are entertaining the crowds while we wait for the ceremony to begin. For Indians, the centennial represents a triumph over tragedy, said Gena Howard with the American Indian Cultural Center and Museum.

The symbolic ceremony will include parts from several tribes in Oklahoma, and will conclude at 5:20 as the sun sets.
