Black and white photographs (5X7) made from slides, labeled as follows:
Container:
-
Description: 1) Evidence of prehistoric culture abounds in Wyoming where examples of rock art are found in the Dinwoody area and elsewhere. Petroglyphs showing characters such as these suggest Shoshonean origin, and it is believed that the figures represent the illusive "little people" (the NunumBi) who would shoot invisible arrows of misfourtune at anyone who displeased themDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-pic) Indian-Pictographs
-
Description: 2) The term "Spanish Diggings" is a misnomer because there is no proof that the Spaniards entered Wyoming. The flakes you see are near the quarries in the southeastern part of the state. The unidentified, prehistoric Indians came great distances to mine the peculiar quartzite found there, and they scattered "flakes" or chips over approximately 400 square miles in Platte, Goshen, and Niobrara countiesDates:Container: PHOTO (W994) Wyoming
-
Description: 3) The Medicine Wheel in the Big Horn Mountians near Shell, Wyoming was the shrine of early-day Indians, but the Shoshones and Mountian Crows who were in the area at the beginning of historic time disclaim any knowledge of its significanceDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-medw) Indian-Medicine Wheel
-
Description: 4) The Shoshonean Sheepeaters of Eastern Idaho and Northwestern Wyoming were, as their name suggests, dependent for food, clothing and shelter on mountain sheep. They were forced into the inaccessible recesses of the mountains by their aggressive neigbors, the "Horse Indians". The Shoshones have a legend that the Sheepeaters were destroyed by a convulsion of nature. On the contrary, they may have found life on the reservation preferable. Togwotee, a medicine man and subchief under Washakie, was the last known Sheepeater though skeletal remains of their tepees and sheep corrals may still be found in Yellowstone ParkDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-tri-shee) Indian-Tribe-Sheepeaters
-
Description: 5) The Shoshones, who came here first, had a Basin cultural background. The nation is divided into three main divisions: (1) the Western, in Nevada; (2) the Northern, in Idaho, as well as in Montana at the time of the Lewis and Clark Expedition; and (3) the Eastern, in Wyoming. There are serveral small groups, known as southern, in Utah. The Comanches are a splinter group of the Eastern Shoshones, from who they broke away. They migrated southward in the 1700s. Little is known about the Staitans except that they were allies and forerunners of the CheyennesDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian
-
Description: 6) This is a camp of Eastern Shoshones as it might have looked at the time the first white men arrived. The horse was acquired through the Comanches from the Spaniards. In fact, the Shoshones were the first to introduce horses on the Northern Plains of Canada. They took them north on the west side of the Rockies to avoid their enemiesDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-tri-sh) Indian-Tribe-Shoshone
-
Description: 7) The Arapahoes comprise a splinter group from the Gros Ventres (Big Bellies) in Canada. These two Gros Ventres Indians, of Montana, show how comely they are. In late prehistoric times, the tribe, known under various names, camped along the South Sasketchewan, the "Belly River". Its name probably resulted from a curve in its course. Those in the splinter group, migrating southward through the Crow country, were called "Tattooed People". The Crow word sounded like A-ra-pa-hoe, which might account for their name. There is no "r" in their languageDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-tri-gr) Indian-Tribe-GrosVentre
-
Description: 8) This is Watanga (Black Coyote), a Southern Arapahoe for whom a town in Oklahoma is named. The tattooes on his chest indicate that he is an Arapahoe. The scars on his arms are a result of flesh sacrifice he made to the sun when his children were dying from a mysterious cause. In the '90's, he was a Ghost Dance leader. That is the reasom he holds the crow, the symbol of the Ghost Dance, on his kneeDates:Container: PHOTO (B-B561-C) Watanga/Black Coyote
-
Description: 9) This early map shows the lands occupied by the Plains tribes in pink and the Basin in grey. It includes the Shoshones of Wyoming in the Basin area. This was before the Eastern bands had assimilated Plains culture, which was a gradual processDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian
-
Description: 10) A more recent map, by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, includes the marginal tribes in the Plains area. The Eastern Shoshones became Plains Shoshones, after having assumed the more dominant culture. Before coming to the northern plains, where the Arapahoes probably roamed before America was discovered, they are believed to have loved in an area north of the Red River of MinnesotaDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian
-
Description: 11) The Crows were in Northwestern Wyoming when the Arapahoes migrated from the Assiniboine River, in Canada, in the late 1700's. The Kiowa-Apaches were in the Black Hills for a time before the arrival of the Araphoes, who were followed by the Cheyennes. The Kiowas, with their few Apache connections, drifted southward, and the Cheyennes absorbed the Staitans. The Cheyennes, after their arrival in the Black Hills, encouraged the Sioux, who came in ever increasing numbers. The Cheyennes and Arapahoes were closely allied to maintain a balance of power with the SiouxDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian

Description: 12) The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 added to the area of the United States by about one third. Though unexplored by the white man, it was Indian country. The first white explorers were sent to find a land route to the West CoastDates:Container: PHOTO (M32-Lp) Map-Louisiana Purchase
-
Description: 13) Two members of the Lewis and Clark Expedition were of special interest in Wyoming. They were Sacajawea and John Colter. Sacajawea, the Shoshone wife of Charbonneau, the guide for the expedition, carried her baby on a cradleboard, strapped to her back, the full distance to the West Coast from Fort Mandan, North Dakota. In Montana, she encountered her brother, Cameahwait, chief of the Northern Shoshones, and she helped the explorers establish friendly relations. Colter gave such a fantastic description of the geysers and bubbling mud pots he found in Northwestern Wyoming that the name "Colter's Hell" was applied to Yellowstone ParkDates:Container: PHOTO (N213p-yel) National Park-Yellowstone

Description: 21) This Miller painting is the only picture extant of old Fort William at the mouth of the Laramie River on the North Platte. It was built in 1834 for permanent trade with the Indians through the rendezvous was not over. The farsighted traders could tell that the future lay in buffalo robes, so they established their trading post in the middle of buffalo country. About the same time, Bent's Fort was founded on the Arkansas River. The two forts were largely reponsible for the two divisions of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe into the Northern and Southern branches. Traders marrying into the tribes acquired not only wives but also their extended families and even their bandsDates:Container: PHOTO (B-M612aj-p) Miller, Alfred Jacob-Paintings
-
Description: 22) Seven years after Fort William was constructed, the logs had begun to decay, so a more substantial building was erected in the general area though the exact location of the old fort cannot be pinpointed. The new fort, Fort John, was named for John Sarpy, a trader. The original fort was thought to have been named for William SubletteDates:Container: PHOTO (F775-jo) Fort-John

Description: 24) Petroglyphs are usually of an ancient origin, but this may have been made in historic times. It could have been made as recently as 1840, when Father DeSmet baptized at the Treaty Council of 1851. The man holding the two crosses maight have been "The Black Robe", DeSmet. The encirclement suggests a completed story. The Arapahoes did not forget that 300 children were baptized and of that number many died. Their death was blamed on the white man's religionDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-pic) Indian Pictographs
-
Description: 25) Fort Laramie, a favorite trading place of the Sioux, was the first settlement in Wyoming; Fort Bridger, in Western Wyoming, the second. Louis Vasquez, Bridger's French-Spanish partner, preferred their establishment in Salt Lake, thus leaving Bridger among the Indians - that is, until trouble resulted when the Mormons accused him of furnishing guns to the Indians to shoot Mormons. He did provide guns for the Shoshones to defend themselves when they went into enemy country fo the Great Treaty Council of 1851. When a warrant was issued for his arrest, he lef the country. His fort was later bought by the Saints and used for a trading post and mail sationDates:Container: PHOTO (F775-br) Fort-Bridger

Description: 27) Fremont Lake was named after General John Charles Fremont, who was popularly known as "the Pathfinder". The paths had been found by the buffalo and the Indians and had b-en clearly defined by the trappers and traders. Fremont made his contribution by mapping the trail. He named the streams and indicated the distance between campsites. He should have been called the "Pathmarker", for he rendered a great service to the emigrantsDates:Container: PHOTO (La148-fre) Lake-Fremont
-
Description: 28) This map shows the location of tribes at the time of the Great Treaty Council of 1851. By then the Sioux had pushed the Crows from the Powder River country over to the Big Horn and Wind River. This area brought them in conflict with the Shoshones and Bannocks who had considered this their hunting grounds for generationsDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian
-
Description: 29) This shows more clearly the aboriginal domain of Wyoming's two tribes, the Shoshones and Arapahoes. The Shoshones and Bannocks were to the west and the Cheyennes and Arapahoes "between the rivers" - the Platte and ArkansasDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian

Description: 30) In 1828, an area in the central part of the United States was designated Indian Territory. Like all Indian lands, it diminished into what was later known as Oklahoma. An effort was made to locate all Indians in this areaDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian
-
Description: 31) This is the way Oklahoma, or "Indian Territory", looked in 1899. All reservations, with the exception of the Osage, have been terminated. The Osage Indians have kept their lands and their mineral rights, and as a consequence are better off than the other Indian tribes in the stateDates:Container: PHOTO (In2) Indian
-
Description: 32) Since the Shoshones were merely guests at the Treaty Council of 1851, they had no say regarding the designated areas. They eventually settled their claim to their hunting grounds when they defeated the Crows at the fabled Battle of Crowheart ButteDates:Container: PHOTO (B981-cro) Butte-Crowheart
-
Description: 33) In 1857, when it appeared that the Mormons might secede and establish Deseret, an independent empire, Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston was sent west to bring the Saints in line. The so-called Mormon War, which resulted, was actually a "push", with the Mormons "burning their bridges behind them" as they withdrew to Salt Lake. All that Johnston found at Fort Bridger was the stone wall they had so arduously built. After a miserable winter, both the Mormons and the "gentiles" were ready to talk peace. Though the Shoshones have been said to have been neutral, Washakie's patience had been tried by settlers coming into his country. Labeling all as Mormons, he considered this an excellent opportunity to run them out, so he offered 1,200 warriors to the service of the Army for Utah, as Johnston's army was called. His offer was refused, and he lived out his life, pleased by the thought that he had never harmed a white manDates:Container: PHOTO (F775-br) Fort-Bridger
-
Description: 34) The Overland Telegraph Line was finished along the Emigrant Trail, in 1861, but the Sioux became so hostile along the Platte the following year that freighters and emigrants were rerouted an another trail going through Colorado and following a so-called Cherokee Trail over the Laramie Plains and westward. The trail was given its name because a band of Cherokees followed its course in going to California during the gold rush. The new trail avoided the Sioux, but it went through Arapahoe country in the Medicine Bow areaDates:Container: PHOTO (T681-ch) Trail-Cherokee

Description: 36) This tepee belonged to Little Raven, head chief of the Southern Araphoes. When he saw that trouble was brewing at Sand Creek (in Colorado) he folded his tent and went down the Arkansas. His subchief Left Hand was ill at the time, so he remained at Fort Lyon. Just what became of him is still a matter of conjecture. It is not known whether he was killed during the attack or that he joined Little Raven. Though he was reportedly killed, the Left Hand who became chief after Little Raven answers to his descriptionDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-tri-arap) Indian-Tribe-Araphoe

-
Description: 39) The Indians called Fort Phil Kearny "the hated fort on the Little Piney". The Fetterman Massacre, near the fort, was the major incident during the Red Cloud War, 1866. When the three posts were abandoned, Red Cloud reluctantly came to Fort Laramie, where he signed the Treaty of 1868, removing the Sioux from Wyoming to South DakotaDates:Container: PHOTO (F775-pk) Fort - Phil Kearny

Since 1938, the reservation has been jointly owned by the two tribesDates:Container: PHOTO (B-H468-m) Medicine Man
-
Description: 43) The Medicine Lodge Treaty Council (1867) was designed to relocate the Cheyennes and Arapahoes displaced by the debacle at Sand Creek. The two tribes had previously relinquished their land "between the rivers" for a reservation at Sand Creek. This was managed throught the Fort Wise Treaty. Once again, the Indians were to be moved. The woman in the artist's sketch is Maggie Poisal Fitzpatrick, the Arapahoe wife of Thomas Fitzpatrick, first agent for the Platte River tribes (the Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapahoe) and the Southern on the Arkansas. Little Raven insisted on having her as an interpreter as she was the only one he could trust - he had been lied to many timesDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-tri-arap)

-
Description: 53) This is Washakie's best known picture. He once complained that the Arapahoes had "too many chiefs". In his long life he saw many come and go.

Description: 54) The Fletcher family was among those attacked in the vicinity of Arlington, Wyoming, in 1865. A thirteen-year-old girl (Amanda Mary) was abducted by the Cheyennes, her two-year-old sister (Lizzie) by the Arapahoes. Amanda Mary was ransomed about a year or so later, but Lizzie grew up among the Arapahoes, married John Brokenhorn, and had a son, Walks Ahead. Lizzie's Indian name was Kills-in-Time, probably in reference to the fact that her mother was killed at the time of the attack. When Indian names were anglicized she became Sarah and her son Columbus. She is generally referred to as "the White Indian Girl". When she was identified by her sister, she refused to admit she was white, though she had red hair, fair skin, and freckles. She lived out her life among the Arapahoes and she never learned to speak EnglishDates:Container: PHOTO (In2-tri-arap) Indian-Tribe-Araphoe

Description: 65) Around 1890, the Ghost Dance "craze" swept the Indian country, with the Fort Washakie serving as a point of diffusion. The ritualistic Arapahoes entered the spirit of it enthusiastically, but the Shoshones were skeptical. Wovoka, a Nevada Paiute, started the movement which ended in tragedy for the Sioux at Wounded KneeDates:Container: PHOTO (B-W917) Wovoka)
-
Description: 66) Sitting Bull, a Northern Arapahoe, took the concept to the South, where the Indians took part by the thousands. He was second only to Wovoka until Wooden Lance, a Kiowa, challenged him to debate. Sitting Bull, who was defeated, was succeeded by Black Coyote, who continued to believe until the concept finally died out in the South just as Capt. Hugh L. Scott predicted it would. He had been sent by the government to investigateDates:Container: PHOTO (B-Si88-b) Sitting Bull
-
Description: 67) The Ghost Dance concept was based on the belief that if the Indians danced the Naroya-a sliding sidestep - for three days, sang the prescribed songs, and used the paint, the dead Indians and buffalo would return and the white man would disappear.
