The land on which the first atomic bomb was built in Los Alamos had also been used as ceremonial land over the millennia. At one point a ceremony was performed by Power Dreamers in which a power gourd was buried on the land. This gourd was later revived by the dreamers who worked on the Manhattan Project.
The spiritual parallels of the Manhattan Project and the atomic bomb are depicted in Buddha in Redface as told by an old Native Shamanic Dreamer. The scientists who chose the place to create the fire gourd (atomic bomb) did not know consciously that a ceremony had been conducted on the construction site by ancient power dreamers.
