The history of the Souix was very interesting. They used a lot of worldly uses. I will tell you what they did.
The entertainment they would have was great. The kids would play a game that you would try to get the arrow into a rolling hoop. Then they go fishing in a lake near by. The kids father would say "son don't forget to thank the spirit." So you have to thank the spirit then shave the skin off of the fish. The last thing you would do before you go to bed you would listen to a story or play with dolls.
You would eat A ton, you would eat elk and bear. Mostly you would eat corn. Did you know corn was the souix staple? Thats what they mostly grew. Then they eat melons like Watermelon, Cantaloupe, and Honeydew and Crenshaw melon. Lastly they ate green,yellow, and purple squash. They were very good growing the plants they had seeds for.
The culture you would have was very exciting. You would do the eagle dance. It would bless the eagle with good flight and travel. Then you would do the sacred food dance. You would thank the god of food and harvest and ask for a better harvest for next year.
I hope you have learned a lot about about the Souix tribe. So now you can learn a little more at your museum. Thank you for reading may blog and I hope you liked it.
