    The pulsating beat of a deer hide drum resonates while the aroma of sage and tobacco flood the air. Singers murmur song verses in their native language‚ words unknown to many but felt by all. Accompanying the drum are dancers in extravagant regalia; their clothing may be buckskin and neutral-toned or cloth and colorful. Two seemingly similar dance styles stick out in particular: the men’s grass dance and the women’s fancy shawl dance. Although the men’s grass dance and the women’s fancy shawl dance
