Hello,

Are you asking when did Native American tarots became a thing? Not sure, there are many influnces that led to inspire artists create Native American tarots.

Blessed be,,

The tarot was not invented as divination item. They were playing cards that were found as effective tools for divination later. It started around mid 18th century in Europe.
The native american did not have tarot. But there are modern decks that have the native american inscription/ illustration around them.

Well traditionally my people never had or used tarot decks, and they are something that as far as I know that came in with the new age movement when a lot of the new decks were designed and hit the market place.

Personally I use what my ancestors use which is totally different and far, far older.

I know other NDN who do use tarot decks but they are the mass produced ones anyone can buy.
