Best Answer

The Zia is the sacred sun symbol of the Zia Indians of north-central New Mexico.

The number four is also sacred to the Zia: there are four rays radiating out in each of four directions from the sun's center.

'Four' is embodied in the fundamentals of Zia tribal spirituality:

* North, South, East, & West * Spring, Summer, Fall, & Winter * Morning, noon, evening, & night * Childhood, youth, mid-age, & old-age
