Native Americans Scalping Pioneer,18th Century

Scalping is the act of removing another person's scalp or a portion of their scalp, either from a dead body or from a living person. The initial purpose of scalping was to provide a trophy of battle or portable proof of a combatant's prowess in war. Eventually, the act became motivated primarily for financial reasons as people were paid bounties for enemy Native American scalps. Story of the Wild West by Buffalo Bill, 1888 (cropped and cleaned). NOTE: chances are this illustration is inaccurate, as no information is available about Native American Indian women partaking in the practice of scalping.
