Summary[edit]

Description
Arapaho or Kiowa village

Soule took a number of photographs of Arapaho vililages[...]. At first glance this picture contains four adults and a child. However, another person is lying at the feet of the two persons on the left, unless the one nearest the tipi has two right arms. The child is naked, while all the adults are clothed and wrapped in blankets, It was the custom for children below the age of puberty to be unclothed or only partly clothed when in camp. This tipi is carefully made from closely stitched buffalo hides with the fur or hair side on the interior. Sheets of buffalo meat are drying on a rack, while a hide is staked out on the ground for drying and scraping. Perhaps one of the most interesting features of this Arapaho village is that it is a Kiowa village. At least that is what Enoch Smoky says.
