In the 5th grade our class did a play on the Lewis and Clark expedition. One of the girls in the class was a descendent of Sacajawea and one of the boys was the grandson of one of the chiefs from that era. It was a wonderful production. We all worked on the mural sized backdrop of the journey. The highlight was the story of the dress wore by lead girl. It was a beautiful white buckskin* with the most beautiful beading. I don't remember that much of the story but boy was I impressed. The chief wore equally elaborate white buckskin (*specially treated dear hides)pants and elaborately beaded tunic. He also wore whole headdress. There were also several props from tribal collections in Fort Hall.<br /><br />Sacajawea was one of my Idaho history favorites. Chief Joseph was my very favorite.
