Beauty, Honor and Tradition: The Legacy of the Plains Indian Shirts
Few images of Native Americans are as iconic as that of a historic Plains Indian man wearing a fringed shirt, riding across the prairie on his trusty horse. This stereotypical image, etched into the minds of people of this country and Europe, and has been the object of many romanticized novels and television. Fortunately that image is only one insignificant interpretation of the role of Plains Indians Shirts; in reality, they act as a symbol of status, honor, and tradition for Plains Indian culture.
