    This paper accepts Clark Wissler’s dictum, offered as long ago as 1915, in his pioneer study of Plains Indian clothing, that for such perishable objects as costume “real historic data is usually available.” Applying a combination of evidence provided by dated, first-hand, written observations, early drawings and later photographs, as well as selected well documented specimens preserved in museum collections to a study of historic Southern Plains …

  • Notes on the Weasel in Historic Plains Indian Culture

    John C Ewers•ARTICLE•Plains Anthropologist•1977•Cited by: 1

    One of the smaller mammals of the Creat Plains is the short-legged, slender-bodied, agile and aggressive weasel. The historic Indian tribes of this region did not eat the weasel, but the northern tribes snared these animals in winter to obtain their handsome white pelts. Winter weasel pelts were coveted items in both intratribal and intertribal trade and were used by many tribes to decorate war bonnets, and the finest men’s shirts and leggings. W…

    John C Ewers•ARTICLE•Plains Anthropologist•1973•Cited by: 7•References: 1

    Historic records indicate that Indian tribes residing in Texas prior to 1820 suffered no fewer than 30 epidemics during the period of white contact prior to 1890. The cumulative effect of successive epidemics was a major factor in the extinction of some of these tribes, and in continued population decreases among the others. Most probably these epidemics also caused significant cultural changes among the Indians who survived them in such varied a…
