The Flint Boys is the name given to the Pleiades by the Navajo. According to Navajo myth, after the Earth was separated from the sky, Black God had a cluster of seven stars on his ankle. This image shows a sketch of the face of Black God, the Navajo sky god who is depicted as a schematic sky map with a crescent moon on his forehead, the sun as his nose, and the line between them would represent the ecliptic astride where the Pleiades appear.
