5 A chance for glory. Someone seeking revenge. For property.

6 Raiding added to tribal wealth. Apaches, Comanche's, Kiowa's raided for: food, material goods, and live stock. Also, people raided for social popularity. Owning land boosted you in the community.

7 Right: Breastplate made of bones and beads Left: Chief headress made of fur and feathers.

8 Tomahawks (at the right) Blowguns (tube that fires projectiles or darts. Lances (spears) Bows and arrows War clubs (right)

9 Used in combat. Used to reenact the moves of combat in the form of a dance. Usually for some ceremonial purpose. Refers to “ pyrrhic”, a weapon dance in ancient Sparta. Modern day uses: reenactments.

10 Rituals and advice given by the medicine man. Preferred form of battle: sudden raids. Average: 20-30 men would go on raids. Women very rarely took place. A medicine man (at the right).

11 Scalp-skin and hair on top of head. Death on battlefield led to scalping. W/o scalping, the Sioux believed you couldn’t enter eternal after-life. Sioux removed scalp of enemies It was for less enemies in after-life.
