Description

The Ponca Sun Dance is a book written by George Amos Dorsey and first published in 1905. It is a detailed account of the rituals and ceremonies of the Ponca tribe's Sun Dance, which was a central part of their religious and cultural practices. The book provides a comprehensive description of the various elements of the Sun Dance, including the construction of the dance lodge, the preparation of the dancers, the music and songs, and the symbolic meaning of the various dances and movements. Dorsey draws on his own observations as well as the accounts of Ponca elders to provide a rich and detailed picture of this important ritual. The book also includes numerous illustrations and photographs to help readers visualize the various aspects of the Sun Dance. Overall, The Ponca Sun Dance is an important work of ethnography and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Ponca people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
