War shield made by Red-Woodpecker (Crow)

Summary[edit]

Description
Dansk: Et skjold lavet af crowen Red-Woodpecker efter at han så det i en vision, hvor han fik vist syv skjolde i alt. De øverste lodrette streger på skjoldet symboliserer skyer. Den buede streg til venstre er en halvmåne. Siksak linjerne i det vandrette midterbånd er lyn, mens de lodrette streger på den nederste del af skjoldet forestiller regn. I begge sider af skjoldet er der fastgjort bundter af høgefjer. Høgen i midten var beregnet til at frigøre fra skjoldet ved udsigt til en kamp og fastgøre i håret.
English: A war shield made by the Crow Red-Woodpecker. It was inspired by a vision in which Red-Woodpecker saw six shields more. The perpendicular lines in the upper part of the shield symbolize clouds. The curved line is a half-moon. The zigzag lines in the central band are lightning, while the perpendicular lines under it is rain. Two bundles of hawk feathers are attached to the shield. The hawk in between was detached and tied to the hair of the shield owner during battles. Source: William Wildshut: ”A Crow Shield.” Indian Notes. Heye Foundation. Volume II. New York, 1925.
