The Cheyenne Indians is a book written by James Mooney and published in 1905. It is a comprehensive study of the Cheyenne people, their history, culture, and way of life. Mooney, who was an ethnographer and anthropologist, spent many years living among the Cheyenne and learning about their customs and traditions. The book is divided into four parts, each of which covers a different aspect of Cheyenne life. The first part provides an overview of Cheyenne history, including their migration from the Great Lakes region to the Great Plains, their interactions with other tribes, and their conflicts with white settlers. The second part focuses on Cheyenne social organization, including their kinship system, political structure, and religious beliefs. The third part of the book examines Cheyenne material culture, including their clothing, housing, tools, and weapons. Mooney provides detailed descriptions and illustrations of these items, as well as explanations of their significance in Cheyenne culture. The final part of the book covers Cheyenne mythology and folklore, including stories about their creation myth, trickster figures, and other supernatural beings. Overall, The Cheyenne Indians is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American history and culture. Mooney's thorough research and firsthand experience with the Cheyenne people make this book an authoritative and insightful account of their way of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
