3 Historical Background
Native American people The term Sioux can be used to describe any ethnic group within the Great Sioux Nation Sioux can be divided between the Teton, the Isant, and the Ihanktowan-ihanktowana

4 Culture The Ghost Dance, a ceremony intended to call back the Buffalo and send away the whites Uses paintings to record important events such as buffalo hunting, wars, religious events…

5 Religious Practices They believed that spirits lived in the sun, rain, earth and wind. Wankan Tanka created them and gave them animals as food. The Sun Dance: to get gifts from the spirits, such as bringing powerful vision upon participants, renewing the people and the earth, giving thanks, protecting the people from illness and danger, fulfilling a vow, or praying for increased fertility.

6 Clothing Women wore a simple one-piece shifts or dresses, and moccasins. Men wore heavily fringed leggings, shirts, robes and moccasins. During hunts, wore buffalo robes with paintings on them that told either the wearer's great achievements, or only daily events.

7 Housing Used a portable animal teepee, when hunting.
The permanent houses were made of mud and earth. Since they were permanent, the lodges were much fancier than the teepees.

8 Family Life Family was considered the key unit of life.
Children were of primary importance to the families, and therefore the centre of attention. Roles of men and women were clearly defined: men were to defend the family by hunting and fighting enemies. Women: matriarchs, ruling the domestic life.
