| Replica of a Lakota (Sioux) Scalp Shirt circa 1870. |
Shirt is loosely based on the Lakota war shirt presented by Little Big Man, who said it allegedly had once belonged to Crazy Horse, or that it had at least been worn by him. According to family history however, the shirt cannot have belonged to the great Lakota chief, who never kept scalps he took in war but instead left them upon the ground
