content: George Levi, Max Bear, 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. This is not a quilled stole for a horse- 'Quilled Breast Plate' should be new name, it is for a person. The fur may not be otter, may be cow hair/hide. It's just one strip, not two pieces, which otter would be the size to need two strips. Also, otter has an under and an over fur, which this doesn't.
