1830--ritual device

1830-31

Blue Thunder: "Wo-na-re made one of the Ruling class."

No Two Horns: "Many ceremonies winter."

Blue Thunder Variant: "Wo-nas-se was made one of the ruling class."


Wo-nas-se means Buffalo Hunter. The feathered staff probably means that Wanáse has been adopted into the Dakota family.

The "Ruling class" puzzles me; perhaps, it means something like "best people"?
