Young Crow men who did not receive their energy or spiritual power from nature could often receive it from sacred tobacco. According to Grant, this plant was given to the Crow by sacred beings who came from the stars. They then stayed to help the Crow in the form of this sacred plant. At this petroglyph site we can see the plant’s star-shaped seed pod etched into the rock – evidence that the spirits have given the Crow messages through the sacred tobacco plant.
