content: Yellow tipi model (Doguako). Yellow with red band at top, including ears, edged in blue. Horsehair pendant at back center. Unpainted rawhide door. 56" (142 cm). Records: Hereditary in the family of the great chief, Dohasan I. It had been occupied by his father, Padogai before the "coup picture tipi" (245001) had been obtained from the Cheyenne, circa 1845. With the death of Dohasan I in 1866, the hereditary succession was broken because his oldest son, Patain, had preceded him in death. Mooney says that flags should be tipped with buffalo hair. Informants: Haba, Kogaitadal. Model by Ankima, wife of Dohasan III. Illustrated in Ewers 1978: 16. (C). Associated names: Padogai; Dohasan I; Haba; Kogaitadal; Ankima; Dohasan III.
