Buffalo Bird Woman
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Template:Informed Native American leader Buffalo Bird Woman (ca. 1839-1932) was a traditional Mandan Hidatsa woman who lived on the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota. Her Hidatsa name was Maxidiwiac. She was known for maintaining the traditional Hidatsa skills of "gardening, the preparation of food, weaving and many others."[1][2] She passed on the traditional ways of her culture and oral tradition through interviews with Gilbert Wilson, in which she described her own experience and the lives and work of Hidatsa women.[2]
Edward Lone Fight is her descendant.
