    "This exhibition offers one of the most detailed glimpses of two centuries of tribal history."

    THE LAKOTA WINTER COUNTS

    A winter count is a large piece of hide, cloth, or paper covered in discrete drawings, each one representing an anual memorial event.

    This Smithsonian online exhibit just won a Webby award, the Oscar of the Internet.

    Ten wintercounts span from the 18th to 19th centuries.
