On page 167 of Vestal's New Sources, Brule chief "Tiramnamna" is mentioned; does anyone know who this is?
Thanks,
Carlo

Spelling sounds corrupted, so I checked Buechel's Dictionary and found:
Ti-ha-mna-mna : "The second of the stomach cavities in ruminants, the honey comb or reticulum, next in size to the taniga paunch". I don't know of any Sicangu chief called "Honeycomb" or "Bull/Cow Paunch" - a sobriquet, maybe?
