content: Photographs made during Mooney's work among the Kiowa, particularly in Oklahoma around Anadarko, Ft. Sill, and the Wichita Mountain region.  Images primarily document individuals, families, daily activities and camp life, but also include photographs of a Mescal Ceremony, Mexican captives, and preparations for the National Exposition at Nashville in 1897.  There are also photographs collected by Mooney (many of which were used in his publications) that were created by other photographers including C.M. Bell, Alexander Gardner, Hutchins and Lenny, and William Soule.
