Crooked lance. Skidi Pawnee Red Lance society

Summary

[edit]
Description
Dansk: En kroget lanse brugt i skidi pawnee divisionens Red Lance selskab. Ved metalspidsen var der et bundt uglefjer med ørnefjer omkring. En sten sad midt på snoren, der holdt den krogede ende i form, og var symbol for en stjerne eller ovenjordisk kraft. Skaftet var omviklet med odderskind, mens selve det korte greb var omviklet med tørret bjørnetarm. Under sejrsdanse overtog kvinderne lanserne på et tidspunkt og dansede med dem.
English: A crooked lance used by the Red Lance society of the Skidi Pawnee. Tufts of owl and eagle feathers hide the base of the iron point. The stone on the string to the crook symbolized a star or a heavenly power. The shaft was wrapped with otterskind; the short handle with dried bear guts. During victory dances the women took the lance and danced with it. Source: Murie, James R.: Pawnee Indian Societies. Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History.
