Product Description
Most Indian nations traditionally kept a history of the events which affected their people. Among the nations of the Northern Plains, this listing of events was recorded in pictographic form on hide and was called a Winter Count. This book provides a Winter Count in narrative form from 28,000 BC through 1998. In addition to a chronological listing of Indian events in these states, the book also provides information on cultural resources, such as museums, the names and addresses of the tribes in the states, and information on powwows and other celebrations. The book also includes information about the native American use of plants and animals and a short history of treaties with the tribes in the area.
