#Still About Women....
The woman was very respected in the culture of traditional Native American, and although women generally had different roles from men, they often had the same rights. Usually they were the owners of the house with everything in it, and in some tribes, where the head was a man, were women to be responsible for his election. Because the women's activities were considered as central to the welfare of the community, this gave them a certain degree of social, political and economic, and even today about 25% of the Native American tribes recognized by the US federal government is guided by women.

ingredients:
~ Something old ...
~ Something Sioux*** ...
~ Something wearable ...
~ Something blue ...
~ BUT the same object or design element may not be used to meet more than one of the above criteria. For example, an old, blue-beaded moccasin could theoretically satisfy all four requirements but it may not! You’d have to pick one of the four requirements and then fulfill the other three with different objects or design elements.
*** Any obvious reference to, or item of, traditional Native American culture is okay: it need not be specifically of the Sioux tribes.
