The Cheyenne Indians is a comprehensive ethnographic study of the Cheyenne people, written by James Mooney and first published in 1905. Mooney, an American ethnographer and member of the Bureau of American Ethnology, spent several years among the Cheyenne, learning about their culture, history, religion, and social organization. The book covers a wide range of topics, including Cheyenne mythology, kinship, marriage, warfare, hunting, and daily life. Mooney also provides detailed descriptions of Cheyenne ceremonies and rituals, such as the Sun Dance, the Buffalo Dance, and the Hako, as well as their beliefs about the afterlife and the supernatural. The book includes numerous illustrations and photographs, as well as extensive notes and references. The Cheyenne Indians remains an important resource for scholars of Native American history and culture, as well as anyone interested in learning more about this fascinating people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
