The Hidatsa Water Buster (Midi Badi) Clan Negotiates the Return of a Medicine Bundle from the Museum of the American Indian in 1938
arts Article Trusting You Will See This as We Do: The Hidatsa Water Buster (Midi Badi) Clan Negotiates the Return of a Medicine Bundle from the Museum of the American Indian in 1938 Jennifer Shannon Department of Anthropology and Museum of Natural History, University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, CO 80309, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-303-492-6276 Received: 21 August 2019; Accepted: 19 November 2019; Published: 26 November 2019 Abstract: An often cited 1938 repatriation from the Museum of the American Indian in New York City to the members of the Water Buster or Midi Badi clan of the Hidatsa tribe in North Dakota is revisited. Rather than focusing on this event as a “ﬁrst” in repatriation history or using it as a character assessment of the director of the museum, this account highlights the clan’s agency and resistance through an examination of their negotiation for the return of a sacred bundle and the objects they selected to provide in exchange. Through this example, we see how tribes have had to make hard choices in hard times, and how repatriation is a form of resistance and redress that contributes to the future of a community’s wellbeing in the face of a history of religious and colonial oppression. Keywords: repatriation; cultural patrimony; Native Americans; museums; Hidatsa; Mandan Hidatsa Arikara Nation; Three Aﬃliated Tribes; National Museum of the American Indian; Museum of the American Indian; George Gustav Heye Trusting that you will see this in the same light as we do and decide to co-operate with us for the return of the Sacred Bundle.

Lewis and Clark Adventure Tour
Create Your Own Corps of Discovery Follow in the Footsteps of Lewis and Clark Legends are often described as “an extremely famous or notorious person, especially in a particular field.” Lewis and Clark and the Corps of Discovery are true legends. Sent off to claim uncharted territories and collect specimens and make friends with whomever they meet, the explorers hit the jackpot in North Dakota! The real adventure for Meriwether Lewis and William Clark began here, in what is now North Dakota. The explorers spent more consecutive days in North Dakota than any other state on the expedition, wintering near present-day Washburn at Fort Mandan. Two centuries later, you can see the same landscape at 28 locations recognized by the State Historical Society as significant to the Lewis and Clark Expedition. To experience this adventure for yourself, contact North Dakota Tourism at 1-800-435-5663 or visit www.ndtourism.com. Ask for a copy of Tourism’s Lewis & Clark Trail Guide, which highlights attractions and activities found along the trail in North Dakota. SITES TO SEE On-A-Slant Indian Village/Fort Abraham Lincoln State Park On-A-Slant Indian Village was occupied by Mandan Indians between 1650 and 1750. About 1,000 people lived in the village, but by the time of Lewis and Clark, most had been wiped out by smallpox. Today, reconstructed earthlodges overlook the Heart and Missouri rivers, giving a sense of scale and lifestyle. Each lodge is 30 to 40 feet in diameter and stands 10 to 12 feet high. A small museum offers a wonderful interpretive exhibit.

THE WRITING of INDIAN HISTORY, a Review Essay
40 Explorations in Ethnic Studies BOOK REVIEWS CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THREE KINDS: THE WRITING OF INDIAN HISTORY A REVIEW ESSAY by Martin Zanger University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Roy W. Meyer. The Vi llage Indians of the Uppe r Missou ri: The Mandans, Hidatsas, and Arikaras. Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1977, 354 pp., $14.95. Can non-Indians write "Indian history"? Professor Roy \.J. Meyer, Director of American Studies at Mankato State University, confronts himself with that vexing question in the prefatory remarks to his survey of the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara peoples from pre European contact times through the 1970's. Although Meyer's book is a case study of specific Indian societies, a number of themes he emphasizes will be useful for teachers and students who are not specialists in Indian studies. As students of European historiography well know, the problems encountered by "outsider" historians when they attempt to penetrate an "alien" culture are as old as written history. Robert F. Berkhofer, Jr., in a tremendously influential essay on the "new Indian history," outlined a tripartite division of the subject.I Most of what has been (and is) passed off as "Indian history" is simply the story of Indian-white relations as told from Euro American sources. Whether purportedly "sympathetic" to native Americans or not, this approach is myopically ethnocentric. Dee Brown's immensely popular Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee: An Indian History of the West is but the best known example of the genre.2 Historians who suffer from this affliction ignore the ethnohis torical approach which draws upon insights from political and cul tura-1 anthropology, Indian oral traditions, ethnology, I inguistics, and archaeology to reconstruct the other two dimensions of Indian history: Indian-Indian history, or the record of intertribal 1Robert F.

Four Bears Bridge New Town, ND
Four Bears Bridge New Town, ND The Four Bears Bridge, near New Town, North Dakota, serves as a critical link for the communi- ties of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation.

Chapter 3 — Affected Environment
Chapter 3 — Affected Environment his chapter describes the affected environment for the project alternatives. The affected T environment is the portion of the existing environment that could be affected by the project. The information in Chapter 3 describes existing conditions, before any of the alternatives are implemented. Chapter 4 describes the changes that are expected to occur from implementing the alternatives. The information presented here focuses on issues identified through the scoping process and interdisciplinary analyses. The affected environment varies for each issue. Both the nature of the issue and components of the proposed project and alternatives dictate this variation. The following sections concentrate on providing the specific environmental information necessary to assess the potential effects of the proposed action and alternatives. 3.1 General Physical Environment The Fort Berthold Indian Reservation encompasses about 1,583 square miles in portions of six counties in west-central North Dakota. The counties are Dunn, McKenzie, McLean, Mercer, Mountrail, and Ward. Surface elevations range from about 1,835 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) along Lake Sakakawea to more than 2,600 feet AMSL in Dunn County. The project area occurs at the confluence of two North Dakota ecoregions — the Missouri Coteau Slope and the Northwestern Glaciated Plains (Bryce et al. 1998). Physiographically, this area consists of nearly level till plains and rolling morainic hills and is also known as the glaciated Prairie Pothole Region (PPR). The PPR is a unique area of approximately 300,000 square miles in the United States and Canada that stretches northwest from northern Iowa through southwest Minnesota, eastern South Dakota, eastern and northern North Dakota, southwest Manitoba, and south Saskatchewan to southeast and east central Alberta and bordering areas of northern Montana (Kantrud et al.
