CALLING DOWN THE THUNDER Religion
and prayer was an essential part of the daily life of Native Americans.
Symbolism was also important in their ceremonies, clothing, weapons
and art. Eagle feathers in the hair of a warrior were only to be worn
for deeds of bravery, such as slaying an enemy or “counting
coup” on an enemy. His buffalo robe has decorative quill work
on it. The cross within a circle tells of the four winds, while the
crooked lines inside the band tells of lightning and thunder that
would bring him swiftness and strength. This sculpture is the larger
finished one being created by the cowboy artist in “ A Portrait
Of The Past”. |
