Artifact History

Credit Line/Dedication Reginald and Gladys Laubin Collection
Reproduction Needs Research, Conflicting information. Don Tenoso says non-native reproduction. But Laubin said from 'Eagle Nation, Lakota Nanbli Osterwin.' the latter part could be the name of a Lakota person, which would imply that this was created/used by Lakota. JLW, 5/25/2007
