49 ORIGIN OF THE WHITE BUFFALO DANCE. [PTH. ANN. so. 
And one woman is supposed to hold one dog in, say, the middle (of 
the place). Then the head singer speaks at length. He gives 
instructions and asks life for her.] 
Though we are given some information on localizations, etc., the 
diagram (Fig. 1), drawn by Alfred Kiyana, and the accompanying 
explanations will elucidate the general arrangement far better, and 
the ceremonial character of the tribal dual division is brought out.

The localization of minor packs Nos. 2 and 4 in the diagram does not seem to entirely agree with the 
information in the texts. The diagram brings out clearly that the tribal dual division is for ceremonial as 
well as athletic purposes, as long maintained by Michelson. A T0o‘kSn®4‘ speaker is not in the list of actual 
participants; probably theoretically there should be one. The ceremonial attendants to the War gens 
must be of the Wolf gens, according to another text written by the same informant; also according to other 
informants. The diagram of the pack is an idealistic representation of the White Buffalo; actually it is 
not realistic. 
The existing organization according to Alfred Kiyana is as follows:
