Description:
From: North American Indian Costumes, Vol. 2, p. 7: The Dakotas, often simply called Sioux, are the main tribe of the Sioux family. They live on the Rosebud and Pine Ridge reservations in South Dakota. Their ancestral home was most probably the forest region of Minnesota. They were pushed on to the Plains by the westward march of the gun-armed Chippewas. De Soto heard of them and saw some in 1541. The Jesuits mention them as early as 1640. Lewis and Clark traversed their territory and encountered most of their bands in 1804 and 1805. At that time they ruled a large part of the Plains regions. Horses had revolutionized their life, like that of other Plains Indians, transforming their methods of hunting and fighting. They were the most persistently hostile of all Indians to intruders, especially to the Whites, who encroached upon their lands and destroyed the buffalo, center of their economic and spiritual life. In 1862 by the Santee War, in 1876 at the Battle of Little Big Horn, where Custer and his entire command were annihilated, and in 1890, by the Ghost Dance uprising, they tried desperately to free themselves and their land from intruders. They were a proud and dignified race, very intelligent and with high moral standards, although they could be extremely cruel to their enemies. In the selection of their chiefs, heredity was less important than ability and achievement. The chief's power was held in check by the tribal council. The Dakotas were stoically brave. They were the most skillful of Indians in the use of the bow and arrow, with which they had remarkable success even again the gun-armed Chippewas. The men are tall and well built, many over six feet, and broad in proportion. They have high cheek bones and Roman noses. Their women are also large and often very handsome. In olden days, the women wore dressses of tanned deer or elk skins. An entire skin was used for the front and one for the back, forming a one piece garment from the shoulders to below the knees. A cape-like yoke was formed from two pieces hung over the shoulders; it fell loosely over the arms, taking the place of sleeves. The front and back of the dress are exactly the same. The Dakota costume was handsomely decorated with beads in geometric designs. Sometimes the whole cape was completely beaded, making it the most beautiful and elaborate of all Indian garments. The women's leggings covered the legs up to the knee and were held with garters. The rawhide soled moccasins were similar to those of the men, cut in distinctive tribal shape and decorated with beads and quills. Collars, necklaces, and bracelets were worn by men and women alike. These were made of bones of duck, rabbit, of glass beads, of elks' teeth, of shell, or, for important men, of bears' claws. description From: North American Indian Costumes, Vol. 2, p. 7: The Dakotas, often simply called Sioux, are the main tribe of the Sioux family.
