content: This item was identified as regalia for the Buffalo Lodge, the Arapaho women's society, by reference to A. Kroeber, The Arapaho, AMNH Bulletin, 1904. It is reported on catalogue card to have come from Oklahoma, from a Mr. Boyle Bointon (probably Paul Boynton, an Arapaho who worked as an interpreter for James Mooney). A headdress cataloged as 362211 is probably part of the same outfit. The card for Cat. no. 362212 indicates that it also is associated with 362214, but the item has not been located for review. The card for 362212 indicates it is/was inside the bag # 362214, but the contents of 362214 have not been examined to confirm this.
