I really enjoyed the pictures of the artifacts, I really liked horses. I'm glad that Heye collected preserved them. Have you been to the Smithsonian's American Indian museum in D.C.?

It's an amazing piece of history though, and I enjoy seeing artifacts from another tribe besides the Seminoles, which I am quite familiar with already.

I have always wished that the items Lewis and Clark brought back had been better preserved, but alas, almost all of them were lost -- along with much of the cultural record of the peoples they met along the trail. Thank goodness for people like Mr. Heye. Thanks for sharing this, Doug. Wow, what a priceless collection of items.
