High Hawk of the Brule Tribe
High Hawk of the Brule tribe donned the ceremonial outfit of his people for this photo taken in 1907. The Brule tribe was one of the Teton Lakota tribe’s seven sects. In this image, High Hawk is standing on the South Dakota plains where his tribe was. Some believe that the name of the tribe originated from the French colonists who first encountered members of the tribe running through burning grass and named them burnt which translate to Brule in French.
