There is one area of Old Town that is called the Indian Market Place. Many years ago only Native American Indians were allowed to sell their things in this area. After some problems now others nationalities are allowed to sell here as well. But being a traditionalist with some Indian blood I will only buy from those that look and sound like Indians to me. Most it is hand made jewelry that is sold here. Lots of silver and turquoise, some gold, and copper. But it is very good artistic work and you will pay as much for it here as in some of the shops but instead of being in fancy display cases it is laid out on blankets spread on the ground. At one time I am sure it was on dirt but now it is a wide concrete sidewalk.
