  • A Native American women, identified as Eat-no-meat and a member of the Cayuse Tribe, is standing outside in front of a blanket. She is wearing a Euro-American style dress, a necklace, a leather belt, earrings, and a blanket wrapped around her shoulders. Her hair has been tied into braids. She is carrying a bag in her left hand. The name is probably a translation of her Indian name; tribal members are attempting to verify her name.
