Description
In a running battle on horseback, a Cheyenne, wearing a vest, calico shirt, painted and beaded leggings, German silver hair plates, and a peace medal (or similar medallion), attempts to count coup on a Pawnee warrior painted entirely in blue and wearing only a breechcloth and moccasins. As he aims his bow and arrow, the Pawnee's previous four arrows have passed by the Cheyenne. From the article: Preserving History in the Southern Plains: Cheyenne and Arapaho Ledger Drawings...
