content: George Levi and David Ramos of the Cheyenne delegation from the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma made these comments during the Recovering Voices Community Research Visit November 3-6, 2015. These are identified as men's moccasins in the catalog. George has seen this design in ledger drawings, he believes it could be a caterpillar design, but not the classic design. David thinks the 'V' could indicate a flock of birds. David explains the difference between men's and women's beadwork on moccasins. The men's designs are split and the women's designs are whole. These are men's moccasins because the pattern is split and each side is a whole pattern on its own.
