Native American Mandan Indian Buffalo Dance, 1830s

The Buffalo Dance is an annual dance festival of many North American Plains Indians, including the Mandan, Sioux, Cheyenne, Pawnee, and Omaha, among others. The festival traditionally coincided with the return of the buffalo herds, and included a feast and a dance with a number of men wearing buffalo and other animal skins. As the buffalo, or bison, was so central to society, it was important to assure the return of the herd and an abundance of food and resources.
