祖尼人的陶器上常能看到"有心脏线纹饰的鹿"的图案。鹿是作为仪式用品和食物被猎杀的，所以祖尼人通过祈祷表示对这种动物的灵的崇敬，期望为了祖尼人的利益它们能大量繁殖。
The"deer with heart line"design is frequently used on Zuni pottery. Deer are hunted ceremonially as well as for food and the design honors the spirit of the animal with prayers so that they will continue to be abundant for the benefit of the Zuni people.
