Indian Buffalo
Hunters Inspire
Piece

One of the appealing dioramas
to be included in the group at the
new Veterans and P ionee RS
Memorial at Helena will be the
one titled the Buffalo Drive"
dramatizing one of the methods
used by the Blackfeet and other
Plains Indian tribes generations
ago in solving their major eco
nomic problem the quest of the
buffalo. go
Understanding is that this
meaningful diorama is almost
completed, being one of II that
will tell the story of the past
of Montana when it was a color
less area of the Louisiana Pur-
chase, OF Montana when it was a
territory and finally of Montana
when it was esteemed by glori-
GUS statehood.
The entire group of dioramas
are being modelled by Gardell
Dano Christensen, famed museum
sculptor.
The group of dioramas are a
part of historical theme con-
ceived of by John C. Ewers, mu-
scum expert of the Smithsonian
Institution at Washington, u. C.
The first curator of the Mu-
scum of the Plains Indian here,
local friends are observing with
deep interest his efforts at plann-
ing the contents of the Veterans
and Pioneers Memorial.
With the early Blackfeet the
largest tribal group in the north
west, their domain taking in the
larger part of western Montana,
obviously the buffalo hunt as de-
picted in the diorama was all-im-
portant. 1t was the Blackfeet's
bread basket. the success of the
hunt determining the contents of
the basket. OF course, t h ere
were less effective methods of
taking their quarry-the b 0 W
and arrow, the spear and various
ingenious snares, depending up
on opportunity and geography.
Cliffs along State Highway 80
through the reservation are rem
iniscent of the old days of the
buffalo hunt. Excavations at
their base in late years have
yielded evidence of the per-
ennial mass slaughter h
took place.
Layer upon layer of bones will
be encountered by h os e who
might get overly curious about
the early Indian and who takes
on a shovel-digging job.
The buffalo hunt was a COM
paratively simple project. 1t was
nothing more than getting a herd
of unsuspecting buffalo stamped
ing in a certain direc ion. With
heads down. they go forward,
one after another plunging over
the precipice.
Wounded and stunned by the
vertical fall of between Is and
100 feet, they are the easy prey
of Indians, who finish them off
with spears or bow and arrows.
Then comes the job of skinning
the carcass, of cutting up the
meat, of rendering the marrow
in the b one S. of pegging and
drying the hide.
The buffalo was the Plains In
dams staff of life. 1t was his
food. 1t was his shelter.
