clifford mahooty
Clifford Mahooty was a respected elder of the Zuni Pueblo Indian Tribe of New Mexico, simultaneously grounded in tribal wisdom and modern professional expertise. Having earned a Bachelor of Science in Civil/Environmental Engineering (New Mexico State University, 1969), he spent many years working as a civil/environmental engineer for private industry, the U.S. Public Health Service, and tribal infrastructure projects.
Within his tribal tradition, Clifford held roles in the Kachina priesthood, the Galaxy Medicine Society, and the Sun Clan. As a “wisdom-keeper” he carried forward Zuni oral history, ceremonial knowledge and spiritual teachings—including those addressing sacred places, star-people traditions and ancestral prophecy.
In his later years, Clifford shared this synthesis of engineering experience and indigenous wisdom through speaking engagements and teachings for broader audiences, encouraging deeper awareness of Earth stewardship, sacred knowledge and inter-dimensional connection. His legacy continues to inspire those seeking a bridge between ancient traditions and contemporary life.
Mahooty is a retired civil/environmental engineer (BSCE-NMSU-1969) and worked in many projects with Shell Oil Company, US Federal Government in Environmental justice for Indian tribes, Tribal housing projects in the USPHS as a commissioned officer in water, waste water, and EPA enforcement in environmental compliance. Mahooty is active in the Zuni orders of the Kachina, Galaxy Medicine Society, Sun Clan leadership, and is a wisdom keeper of the Zuni history.
He has been led by the ancestors to share this extraordinary lost history and his credibility, humility and integrity combine with his clear ability to interpret and masterfully & courageously articulate experiences of the ancient inner earth ‘ant people’, inner earth humans and ‘light’ beings of Star Nation is absolutely stunning. Unprecedented
After decades of silence, a handful of elders are again describing the ways and technology of the original people. Some of the traditions describe the sacred land of Lemuria (Mu), and the wisdom keepers. We can learn a great deal about the people of ancient earth from the native tribes who have continuously live in select regions of our planet for thousands of years.
