content: George Levi and Max Bear 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. Noted that the feathers were interspersed particularly to create a specific look. The feathers are possibly from the same bird, but the different kinds of feathers. George noted that the tab halfway down the train is wrapped around the waist to hold everything in place as the warrior is riding a horse or otherwise moving.
