Man in the Maze disc beads

These pewter beads 1 1/8" in diameter and 1/8" thick. Perfect for inlay because they are flat! The design is on both sides so they may also be used as a pendant since there is a hole drilled from top to bottom.

The "Man in the Maze" (I'itoi) is a sacred symbol of the Tohono O'odham people, representing life's journey, choices, challenges, and eventual destiny, depicted as a figure navigating a single-path labyrinth from darkness (birth) towards the light (center/afterlife). Originating from O'odham emergence stories, it symbolizes spiritual growth, learning from mistakes, and finding purpose, seen on traditional baskets, jewelry, and as the seal for the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community.
