This Diné (Navajo) pictorial weaving reminded me of the pixel art style commonly seen in early Apple II and Commodore games.

A large pictorial weaving, displaying a busy scene with blue sky and clouds at the top, a thin layer of green mountainous land slightly below that, and a large field of red earth occupying the (majority) space below. All across the earthen scene are various buildings, people, animals, and implements of daily life.
Detail of the pictorial weaving, showing a group of people wearing clothing of different colors. The people are rendered in simple stitches with minimal detail.
Detail from the pictorial weaving showing a couple of trees, a truck, and several horses or donkeys grazing. All are rendered in minimal detail.
