"Cheyenne Moccasins  
Collected at Norman, Oklahoma around 1960.  
These moccasins were made by Margaret White Turtle, a Southern Cheyenne who served for many years as a language helper at Norman SIL.  They are typical of the US Plains tribes.  The soles are of stiff leather, and the uppers are of soft, tanned leather.  The beads were bought commercially.  All sewing and beading was done with strong sinews." ...
