Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Publications of the Field Columbian Museum, Vol. 9: Anthropological Series
The following brief and imperfect account of the Cheyenne social organization was obtained as part of my studies of the Cheyenne sun-dance, which, in turn, are part of a comparative study on this ceremony among the Plains Tribes I began in 1901. The Cheyenne sun-dance will form the subject of Part II. Of this volume. These notes on the organization of the Cheyenne are given in this form because opportunity for further and more extended observation does not now seem possible.
