A Title of Honor
— Plains Indians Life, Beliefs and Practices —
The Plains Indian chief was not an autocratic ruler. The title was honorary, although an exceptionally powerful personality could exert great influence. As a rule, any power exercised within the tribe was done so by the total body of responsible men who had earned social eminence through their war record and generosity.HM Number | HM12GX |
