Beaufort, South Carolina

Emblems of Belief:  Indigenous religions are alive and well across the continent, and the Native American Church of North America is the most widespread of all. You recognize the tee-pee on their insignia. Do you recognize what's on top? A collection of psychoactive peyote buttons, the focus of the church's chief sacrament. Beaufort National Cemetery. [2008]
