Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sun Dance of the Plains Indians: Its Development and Diffusion Most Plains tribes had the sun dance: in fact, it was performed by all the typical tribes except the Comanche. Since the dance has not been held for years by some tribes, viz., Dakota, Gros Ventre, Sutaio, Arikara, Hidatsa, Crow, and Kiowa, the data available for a comparative study vary widely in value. The chief sources of information outside of this volume are the accounts by G. A. Dorsey for the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ponca; Kroeber for the Arapaho and Gros Ventre; Curtis for the Arikara; and Lowie and Curtis for the Assiniboin. There is no published informa tion for the Fort Hall Shoshoni, Bannock, Kutenai, or Sutaio. So far as I am aware there has been no general discussion of the sun dance. Hutton Webster in his Secret Societies considers it, without giving proof, an initiation ceremony. It is the aim of the present study to reconstruct the history of the sun dance and to investigate the char acter of the factors that determined its development. By a discussion of the distribution of traits - regalia, behavior, ideas of organization, and explanatory myths - it will be Shown that the ceremony among all the tribes has grown chie y by intertribal borrowing. It will be demon strated further that the center of development has been in the central Plains among the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Oglala, and that the original nucleus of sun dance rites probably received its first Specific character at the hands of the Arapaho and Cheyenne, or of this couple and the Village tribes. The character of transmission has been such as to produce a greater uniformity throughout the area in the distribution of regalia and behavior than of the ideas, organizing and mythical, associated with them. The corollary of this is that tribal individuality has been expressed principally in pattern concepts of organization and motiva tion. Since there is no difference in the character of borrowed or in vented traits which are incorporated in the sun dance and those which are rejected, it follows that the determinants must be sought in the conditions under which incorporation proceeds. It will be shown that the character of individual contributions to the ceremonial complex and the diversity in receptiveness and interest, explain in part the ela horation and individualization of the several sun dances.

Excerpt: ...Sociology, 297-299; Fletcher and La Flesche, Omaha Tribe, 251-260. These Dakota, Osage, and Omaha ceremonies are closely related, particularly the first two. the majority of tribes do not, the ceremonies of the latter would seem rather to have had common origin with those of Arapaho and Cheyenne.1 The evidence for the historical relations between these two tribes is not illuminating. The Cheyenne claim to have received their ceremony from the subsequently incorporated Sutaio (before 1832), who lived west of the Black Hills early in the last century and presumably were in close contact with the Arapaho.2 But whether the Cheyenne obtained their dance from the Sutaio or the Arapaho cannot be proven: it is nearly identical with that of the latter tribe, with divergencies chiefly by way of incorporating Oglala features. At best we can only consider the Cheyenne and Arapaho an inseparable couple with priority slightly in favor of the latter. The historical fate of the dance among other tribes can best be ascertained by reversing our procedure and eliminating those tribes whose acquisition is demonstrably recent. While that of the peripheral tribes can be given with some precision, only a general outline can be suggested for those more centrally located because of the great uniformity of the dance among them. The Wind River Shoshoni dance resembles the Arapaho and Gros Ventre equally, but inasmuch as it lacks both bundle and fraternity organization it was probably derived from the latter. According to native statement the Wind River transmitted it to the Fort Hall Shoshoni. These events must be relatively recent and subsequent to the removal of the Comanche into the Plains, since the dance is found neither among the last mentioned tribe nor the...
