On the sixth day of the Mountain Chant Ceremony, before the couriers were sent on their way, a basin of water containing soap root was brought in, and after the medicine man had daubed the couriers with a little of the suds, they washed themselves from head to foot and cleaned their hair as well. The Lashing God in the Night Chant carried a ring of yucca leaves on his back and suspended from this by its roots was a complete plant of soapweed. He held in his hand yucca scourges which were made from the leaves taken from the east and west sides of the plant. For the yucca that hangs at his back, a specimen was selected whose roots stuck well out of the ground and was kicked out with the foot. Masks made of the leaves were also used in the Night Chant. In one of the dances of the last night of the Mountain Chant, yucca was made to grow from the root through buds and flowers to the ripe fruit.","Elmore, Francis H., 1944, Ethnobotany of the Navajo, Sante Fe, NM.

Yucca supplies food in two forms. In the early spring, the apical meristem--the 'heart' or 'cabbage' --was removed with the aid of an oak or a juniper shaft having a shovel like cutting edge at one end. The 'cabbage' was roasted in a pit about three feet deep and perhaps five feet in diameter. A large stone was placed in the center of the pit with smaller stones radiating out from the center. Firewood--preferably Douglas oak--was thrown in and the hot fire burned for a half-day. From time to time more stones--and probably wood--were added. As the fire died down, it was covered with sand or dirt to about ground level, leaving a small aperture in the center. The sand was tapped down, causing flames to shoot out of the hole. Then a layer of dry pine needles was put on and the 'cabbages,' having been skinned, placed on top. Two or three families shared the same oven. the direction in which 'cabbages' were laid identified the owner. Another layer of dry pine needles apparently mixed with silky California broom covered the 'cabbages.' More sand or dirt, patted down and smoothed with a basketry tray, completed the mound, which would now reach a height of five feet but which settled in the roasting process. The roasting continued for two nights, during which no sexual intercourse was permitted. Otherwise it was said that 'it won't cook.' When the 'cabbages' were pulled out, they were so hot they burned the hands. They were cooled before they were eaten. To be stored, they were pulled apart, mashed a little and dried. They could not be dried or stored uncooked. After storage they were soaked and eaten.","Zigmond, Maurice L., 1981, Kawaiisu Ethnobotany, Salt Lake City.

The leaves were folded about four inches in length and tied with a fragment of the leaf. These folds were boiled with a small quantity of cedar ashes. When sufficiently cooked, the leaves were placed in a bowl or basket and cooled. When the leaves were cooled, youths and young women peeled off the epidermis, and chewed the leaves starting at one end and progressing to the other. After chewing the leaves, the fibers were separated, straightened out, tied with fiber strings and hung in an inner room to dry. When required for weaving, the fibers were soaked in water to soften them.","Stevenson, Matilda Coxe, 1915, Ethnobotany of the Zuni Indians, SI-BAE Annual Report #30, page 78" 43976,4225,Yucca baccata Torr.,291,Zuni,6,s15,78,4,Fiber,43,Basketry,"Split leaves used to make winnowing baskets, baskets for serving food & for transporting materials.","Stevenson, Matilda Coxe, 1915, Ethnobotany of the Zuni Indians, SI-BAE Annual Report #30, page 78" 43975,4225,Yucca baccata Torr.,291,Zuni,6,s15,81,4,Fiber,43,Basketry,Interlaced leaves used to make baskets.,"Stevenson, Matilda Coxe, 1915, Ethnobotany of the Zuni Indians, SI-BAE Annual Report #30, page 81" 43974,4225,Yucca baccata Torr.,284,Yavapai,58,bc41,56,3,Other,106,Soap,"Root, stem and leaves pounded and worked in water to form lather for washing hair and body.","Bell, Willis H and Edward F.
