Description:
Native American Sioux catlinite carved T pipe bag and council pipe acquired directly from the Nez Perce family of Husis Owyeen (Wounded Head). PenahNenonmi (Helping Another), wife of Husis Owyeen 1825-1906, and Husis were on Chief Joseph’s March. Heavily smoked. Acquired at Bear Paw 1877. A Nez Perce youth became a warrior/man and was given the name Husis Hih.  At the Battle of the Clearwater he was wounded in the head and given the name Husis Owyenn (Wounded Head). In the Battle of Bear Paw there were many tribes involved to capture the Nez Perce including Sioux, Crow, Cheyenne and Apache. Their reward was five of the Nez Perce horse herd, which were the best in the Northwest. Wounded Head came upon a Cheyenne Warrior who shot a Nez Perce lady and then shot him. He took the pipe bag and council pipe. He was unable to take the gun or other weapons as they were under the dead horse. These came directly from the Great Grandson on the Nez Perce Reservation. Pipe Bag Beaded Panel 7" x 7"; 24" x 7" Plus 6" quilled slats and 12" brain tanned fringe; pipe 8" x 4" quilled stem with mallard neck 23" overall 31"
