Chief Bone Necklace, 1899
Also known as the Teton Sioux, the Lakota tribe is the largest and most western of the three groups, occupying lands in both North and South Dakota. It comprises seven tribal bands. Before, in their society, the women were the ones in charge of the sources – what to do with them and how to distribute them to all the people in the tribe. On the other hand, the men were the ones who ran to be the chiefs of the tribe and they were chosen by different factors. The man in the picture clearly used to be a chief before.
