- This is one of the highest honors a female can receive. These young woman are very high achievers and are very well respected by the Chiefs and the Omaha Society. The purpose was to showcase these young woman so that the younger generation has someone to look up to. They have a powerful presence when together are have already made an impact with the tribe. The second one to the left is my daughter and I couldn't be more proud.
My niece in the middle, graduating college with her bachelors this year! wants to help the northern cheyenne nation! GO DK!!!
This made me so happy reading this. May she go far in her endeavors to bring back to the N Cheyenne Nation. ❤️
My family comes from the mattaponi
Tell your niece to start right away by petitioning the tribal leaders to pressure government to rescind the dog's Act of 1887 to reclaim more of our lands that were stolen with the dogs act you guys should have a much larger reservation anyway
To correct the technical error on my last comment it's Dawes Act not dogs act
I Love The Cheyenne The Southern Cheyenne Were Always Peaceful Towards Whites There Always A Few Bad Apples But The Women And Children Were Always Rhe Target Because The Soldiers And White Settlers Believe If You Can Gather The Women Children And Old Men They Warriors And The Chiefs Would Surrender Which In My Opinion Is The Worst Thinking Wanna End Wars Obey The Treaties That Were Written And Laws That Should Be Followed
I am Shoshone from Wyoming/Utah. The Crow War Bonnet Dance is to Celebrate a victory over the Shoshone. When the Warriors returned to camp the War Bonnets were given to wives and sisters to celebrate the victory. The women would wear the war bonnets, hold the scalps and weapons during the dance.
Many tribes allowed and still allow certain women to wear war bonnets.
I wondered why women were wearing war bonnets as that's not "normal". Or perhaps I should say not "usual".
(Says me, an Australian who is not even 0.01% Native American!).
All the best to your niece and congratulations to her for finishing her university studies.

Lewis & Clark on their exploration to reach Pacific Northwest coast came upon the Teton Lakota who were shadowing their pack train. It was a very nervous encounter. The Lakota saw the new rifles they had, invited them into their camp. Luckily, an Elder broke up a plot to kill the explorers for all their equipment. Gifts had already been given. The women then did the Scalp Dance, each with multiple scalps tied to a waistbelt. All of the scalps were Native. It was a show of Lakota warrior prowess. No doubt they wanted blonde & ginger for their collection!

LeLeLeLeLeLe what a great honor! That was so beautiful! Congratulation to all of the women ⚡️🦅⚡️
What an awesome sight! These five beautiful young women, moving with elegance & grace, are certainly role models for the younger generation to look up to. I know that as a parent of one of these young women, you must have been bursting with pride. I feel proud seeing them, & I am not Cheyenne. Thanks for posting this up. I'm going to share it in FB group Beautiful Native Americans, which is a teaching & sharing group.
Thanks so much fpr sharing your beautiful ceremony, your wisdom and spirit. May the creator bring us healing. Greetings from Germany

A member of the Quartermaster Corps, she died in the same Iraqi attack in which fellow soldiers Shoshana Johnson and Piestewa's friend Jessica Lynch were injured. A member of the Hopi tribe, Piestewa was the first Native American woman to die in combat while serving in the U.S. military and the first woman in the U.S. military killed in the Iraq War.[2] Arizona's Piestewa Peak is named in her honor.

Cheyenne tribes once 'allowed' women to fight battles right alongside the males...Crazy Horse once fought a battle that included Cheyenne women warriors along with his Lakotas.
Not sure about that? Now why would Crazy Horse, a Oglala Lakota, need Cheyenne women to go help him fight?
*Did Women Fight at Little Bighorn?*
"Lakota Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho warriors came together to fight for their families and their homes. They set out to meet Custer and his 209 soldiers. Among the warriors, there was at least one Cheyenne woman. Her name was Buffalo Calf Road Woman. They also called her Brave Woman.
The Lakota Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapaho peoples had no plans to leave their homes. Neither did the other nations of the Great Plains. That’s why, on June 25, 1876, Custer and his troops attacked. They targeted a camp of American Indian people near the Little Bighorn River in Montana.
Buffalo Calf Road Woman had proven herself in battle only the week before. In that battle, Cheyenne and Lakota Sioux warriors fought against another group of U.S. troops. These Americans were led by General George Crook. At one point, Buffalo Calf Road Woman’s brother, Comes In Sight, was surrounded by soldiers.
Suddenly, Buffalo Calf Road Woman rode into the fighting on her horse. She scattered the soldiers and pulled her brother onto the horse behind her.
In the Battle of Little Bighorn, Buffalo Calf Road Woman fought just as bravely. In fact, she used a club to knock Custer himself off of his horse. The commander and all 209 of his soldiers were killed that day. It was a huge victory for the nations of the Great Plains.
It was many years before most people learned about Buffalo Calf Road Woman’s bravery in battle. To avoid punishment from the U.S. government, the Cheyenne kept the truth secret. Buffalo Calf Road Woman’s story was told in the 1967 book “Custer on the Little Bighorn.” It was later confirmed by a Cheyenne elder in 2005."
@@kb1996cuz Custer was out to kill them all, duh? 😂
Hello. I'm Choctaw and Seminole tribe. I didnt learn about my culture growing up but I'm learning now. I have a question, I thought Native women did not were headdresses? Only Chiefs and some Native men? Does it vary from tribe to tribe? MVTO/ thank you.
Typically most don't but there are some that either now changing to allow women to earn them as well, or those few that are the exception to the rule that women aren't allowed to wear them.
This is a recent change . Before only chiefs wore them . Some tribes will not allow this . I too am part Choctaw ( Chatah ) . Chatah hapia hoke !
Apsaalooke and Cheyenne are some of the many nations that have allowed womxn to wesr headdresses such as these. Its not a new development, there are photographic evidence of womxn wearing them since wyt people started taking photos of us. Tho there are some who dont allow womxn to wear them, and some who only allow chiefs to wesr them. Its different for those who use this medicine.
Those who are not of our tribe should not speak on it's behalf.
Cheyenne have always had women warriors. As is documented historically. This is not some new development. It's always been so. We are a matrilineal society/tribe. And always have been both respected and feared for our warriors, including the origins of the Dog Soldiers.
Each tribes different bruh
Cool stuffs
Cheyenne Dignity
This means the women lead warriors?
Woman regularly fought as warriors, they earned a place in battle. Like a few of the woman I was descended from, "Sugar Lady" she was famous for breaking necks and "20 Stands" she was the 20th person in line of warriors. We even have a tribal holiday "The woman who saved her brother" this was from a woman who led a charge to take her brother back from the enemy and was successful. So at times they did lead warriors, yes.
Yes both in leadership and in battle. Our tribal culture is that of a Matriarchal/Matrilinial society. As it should be. All are equal.
Cheyenne super warrior
😍😍💕❤️✊✊✊✊✊
New generation = new rules.
Idk much about northern Cheyenne but i know southern Cheyenne women cant even touch Black and white eagle feathers or speckled so crazy to learn northern Cheyenne women can
Please don't make things up! Someone on here said that Crazy Horse, a Oglala Lakota, somehow had Cheyenne women beside him fighting? Buffalo Calf Road Woman helped rescue her brother at the Battle of Lil Big Horn. But this is far from warrior women fought in battles.
That is not made up. I am a part of the Northern Cheyenne Dog Soldier Society and a former tribal councilman. We have a long history of female warriors and female leadership. Our family is a decedent of many amazing female warriors, 20 Stands is a very famous Cheyenne warrior and Sugar Lady was most famous for breaking necks. Everytime the warriors would leave the camp there was always woman in the group, that also includes almost every excursion and battle we have ever engaged in. This have been Cheyenne history and culture, unlike the Oglata Lakota a paternal tribe, we are a maternal tribe and thought we as allies we have a much different belief system. In our sacred bundles we have stories of each item, quite a few items are our woman warrior artifacts and they all have a rich history. These stories are from my family growing up and the tribal leadership. So when I first heard there wasn't female warriors in other tribes, it baffled me a a young boy and couldn't figure how everything was reversed. I could ask my elders and they more than likely know the names of the woman that fought next to Crazy Horse.
As far as the battle of the little bighorn, the battle was so fast most of the warriors man and woman didn't have a chance to even get to the battlefield. In fact, another famous story is Fox woman a female matriarch warrior, killed Custer in the end. She was famous for her battle club she wore. Custer knew the men would leave the battlefield and woman would remain after the battle to clean up. She noticed he was still breathing and took out her club. He jumped up and was immediately killed were he stood. Ask any Cheyenne and they'll tell the same story.
@@20stands Thank you for responding. After going back to do some more reading on it. It wasnt the Battle of lil Bighorn that Buffalo Calf Road woman helped to rescue her brother. It was the Battle of the Rosebud. Now somehow she is at The battle of lil Bighorn where she delivers the blow that knocks Custer off his horse. You would have to ask the Sioux about that. Not trying to be sarcastic as I will continue to do some more studying by reading and comparing different chronicles of history. I am fascinated with history. How our predecessors thought and how they lived out their lives. What I will say is if any of it is factual our written history doesnt bare it out and this goes for any of the "warring" tribes including those in Europe like the Vikings or Germanic tribes. I love to learn and your response is well received!! Everyone should be able to know and learn of their ancestry because its truly the most important aspect of their life!
@@kb1996 As tribal leaders, when I was in office, we still have a unwavering bond with all of our allies. Many of the stories and history are still shared between tribes, we rely on our THPO programs to record and document almost every meeting we have. I've traveled to every historical and modern allies we have and work to piece together fragmented history, Sharing stories and essentially data, to recover and restore history for our tribes. As an example we had a family give back artifacts from the Sand Creek Massacre. This included a bow and arrows, clothing and jewelry. However, there were the human remains that were also given back as well, after repatriating this items back to the tribe, the remains, which were a 18 year old females femur and other pieces I will not mention. But we gave her a traditional burial and laid her to rest at the Sand Creek Memorial in Colorado. With the very little we had to go on, we did find out who she most likely was and who her family is today. This is one of the serious heavy burdens that are placed on the shoulders of the tribal leadership, I helped a young lady to her resting place, knowing who she is and what she went through was a tough thing to go thru. So yes we double check our history and try and try and preserve it the best we can.
Cheyenne?
Northern Cheyenne yes
Gostaria de ver nos Dias de home, is indios Norte Americanos com todo Seu esplendor de outras época com milhares de bisões correndo nas vastas pradarias Norte Americanos, é um sonho meu!
Застыли в конце 19 века!
Women wore headdress? Or is this modern Indian feminism?
Why do they wear those?**why do Cheyenne women wear those? Goofy
Bailz Houston1996 your obviously not part of our culture or even a member of the Northern Cheyenne Tribe. I did explain exactly what it means to us. We probably think you look pretty goofy, but we would respect your goofiness.
I'm not even Notameohmésêheseo or of other Native peoples of The Land, I am native only to my own nation which is far far away, yet even I knew this :). You very wel put it in your answer :D. My deepest respect to all of you and those women! Good job guys!
They should take those off and sell them to the crow they must need money and drinksctheir reserve is ugly
Bailz Houston1996 the crows also have war bonnet woman
Who are you to disrespect our culture, customs and practices? We have ALWAYS been a matriarchal/matrilineal society/tribe/nation. Our women have always fought and also lead along side the men. As is well documented throughout our and others history. If that intimidates and bothers you, that's your issue to work out in your disfunctional brain.
