The collection consists of one (1) drawing by Nacoista, or James Bear's Heart, depicting a man and woman playing shinny ball. It is inscribed on the verso "A man and a young lady play with ball, Na-co-is-ta, Pine Ridge, Daniel." Pine Ridge was established as a reservation for the Lakota but a group of Northern Cheyenne were also resident there from 1881 to October 1891.
Please note that the contents of the collection and the language and terminology used reflect the context and culture of the time of its creation. As an historical document, its contents may be at odds with contemporary views and terminology and considered offensive today. The information within this collection does not reflect the views of the Smithsonian Institution or National Anthropological Archives, but is available in its original form to facilitate research.
