I have the pleasure to announce that we have several new pages on the www.American-Tribes.com website. I will keep it short, because Kingsley Bray surely can explain best what is presented there. My big thanks to Kingsley for sharing those Tribal Circle charts he created for us. Also thank you to Diane, who has uploaded the charts and designed the pages. What we have here are tribal circles of the Lakota, Yankton and Dakota Nation from several historical sources. Enjoy: www.american-tribes.com/TribalCircles/directory.htm(Please click on the link to find more charts)

Thanks to the technical savvy of my son David, we have here depictions of over twenty Lakota-Dakota tribal camp circles. The basic data were collected in the late 19th c. by missionaries like S. R. Riggs, early ethnologists like J. O. Dorsey, and James R. Walker. Some are based on data collected in the early 20th c. by anthropologists Scudder Mekeel and Donald Collier. A few are reconstructions by myself and Victor Douville.
I hope we get the chance to add to this database.
For those so inclined, similar data exist for the Blackfeet, Cheyenne, Kiowa, Omaha, and Ponca tribes.

I have come across an "Old Time Camp Circle" prepared by Jake Little Thunder (1911-2004) in 1972. The only leader represented in the circle that I cannot identify is "Wounded Knee"

Tiospaye by Jake Little Thunder files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED066236.pdfJake Little Thunder (1911 - January 12, 2004) Eagle Nest District; Wanblee, South Dakota freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mikestevens/2010-p/p200.htm#i15220By the way kingsleybray, kudos on your "Lakota Camp Circle Terminology"! I checked your work and all the words are in my second edition copy of "New Lakota Dictionary" except for their spelling constructs with the accents and little haitch hats, the c-hats, the s-hats, the z-hats and the nasalization. I have made my own version that is an amalgam of all the ones you posted, but with all the Smoke people on the left-hand horn and the Bear people (including Payabaya) on the right hand horn.

I thought I once came across a thread explaining the Bad Bad tiyospaye. Any thoughts?
