Subject: Lakota question

Collect your bet, Skin. As I said, ignoring what Bowdrill told me is not an option.

I have a question to which I think I know the answer but if I don't ask it I would be foolish.

Doesn't the inipi ceremony far antedate first contact? I vaguely recall some of the French contact literature from the 17th Century mentioning it, which means it must have been older.

I understand White Buffalo Calf Woman would have come more recently, but isn't the inipi ceremony very, very old?
