Chanting what?


The episode balance is now available on hulu for free viewing, and I am curious. Does anyone know what they're saying when they chant in the sweat lodge?

i think the reservation is supposed to be Apache, but they dont have a history of silverworking, unless they buy it from the Navahos to sell to the tourists. ive always been fascinated with the southwestern tribes, but the chant doesnt sound real to me...but im the first to admit i am no expert in that subject! and as for the reservation being that close to Roswell, well i looked on google earth. ahd its some distance to the west of the city.heres the coords: 33°10′42″N 105°36′44″W and is one of the smaller ones. this is for the Mescalero tribe, not the one made up for the show...wonder how they felt about that? id be poed

the grey haired deputy, michael horse, is of mixed nations- Yaqui, Mescalero Apache, Zuni, Swedish, and Latino descent. i think hes the 'token Native American' in a series set in an area surrounded by fascinating nations. their could have been som reallt cool scripts done with the royal four interacting with them, because the indian way to pass along history through shamans and medicine men and women. so they might well have info tha aliens could have used....hows that for a script kickoff? no use, since show is dead and buried. all my faves wind up that way...😭
