General NotesA Native American man, woman, and young girl stand in front of a tipi in a meadow of tall grasses in this stereographic photo. Spread out at their feet lie a couple of striped blankets. The child wears a dress of calico or printed cotton, and a necklace. The woman wears a long dark cloth dress with a light-coloured underdress or shirt beneath it. Around her waist is a belt. She holds a piece of cloth or hide in her left hand. She wears earrings, and her long braids hang down in front of her. The man's hair is pulled behind him. He wears earrings and some kind of hair ties or ornaments, as well as necklaces, one a choker. He wears a cloth shirt over a plaid blanket resembling a kilt, and a belt with a pouch. In his right hand he holds a book or box. In his left hand he holds the tip of an arrow, which has a light-colored feather. He seems to be clasping a bag to his left side with his arm. To the right of the tipi is a leafless tree. In the background, a low hill rises.
TCI NotesAn outside photograph of a family in their regalia next to a Tule mat tipi. A man and a woman are standing next to each other and the child is standing in front of the couple. They are all standing on a wool blanket that is spread out for them. The Tule mat tipi has six layers of tules mats. There are four poles on the outside of the tipi to hold down the tule mats.
