Book Description:
For centuries the 'Sacred Pole' stood for tribal unity for the Omaha. Giving in to Christian pressure to convert, the Omaha relinquished the pole to Harvard's Peabody Museum in 1888. Researchers Robin Ridington and Dennis Hastings draw upon Omaha oral traditions to tell the story of their Sacred Pole and its return to the tribe in 1989 after a century of sustained campaigns. 22 photos. 7 drawings .
