A very authentic picture of a Lower Town Warrior.
"Painting by David Wright"
"I will explain the clothing and weapons featured in David Wright's painting and the significance to the Lower Town Warrior."
"Starting with a pair of turkey gobbler feathers, the turkey Is the warbird of the Cherokee. A shaved head except for top knot hair. Elongated piercing of ears and nose, these were often stretched enough to hold good sized medals. A peace medal hanging around the neck. Peace medals where usually struck to honor Kings and Queens or various important people. After this period picture, Presidents were the usual subject. Next is his neck knife, this placing kept one's knife very quickly accessible. A larger knife was usually on a waist belt. An arm band in conjunction with tattoos signifying a warrior's exploits were his brag to his adversaries and comrades alike. Because of trade with the British, French, Spanish, and yes even the Americans, he usually had the latest flint lock firearm. His red finger woven hunting pouch and powder horn were the accoutrements to supply his firearm with powder and ball. The porcupine quillwork which adorns many of his personal items is a very developed art form strictly attributed to the Native American culture."
"He is draped with a matchcoat, which is a bolt of trade cloth, in this case - blue; adorned and trimmed with gold lace."
"Next is his ball club, also known as a skull crusher. The ball could be either fire hardened wood, smooth stone or of course the favorite was a piece of hematite or native iron. His leggings weren't just fancy, they were designed to run through brambles and thorn bushes. The knee and sometimes ankle "bandoleers" kept them in place. Lastly comes the Cherokee style "center seam moccasins•. They were made from heavy leather and worked very well. I have a pair I have been dancing in since 1981."

Calloway, Colin G.. "The Victory with No Name: The Native American Defeat of the First American Army (p. iv)." Oxford University Press. This is copied righted material.
This is an excellent book and very well written. Mr. Calloway does an excellent job in explaining the time period and what was at stake for the Native People. The book is the story of the defeat of General Arthur St. Clair and the "First American Army".
This great American Indian victory stopped the American migration westward over the Appalachian mountains for nearly four years. It is known historically as "The Battle of the Wabash" and it handed the young United States Army their greatest defeat in the Great Indian Wars.

Schoenfield, Rick M.. "The Soldiers Fell Like Autumn Leaves: The Battle of the Wabash, The United States' Greatest Defeat in the Wars Against Indigenous Peoples." This is copied righted material.
This book is another excellent read. This book is also about "The Battle of the Wabash". Although is book is of the same topic as the previous book above and General Arthur St. Clair and the American Army's defeat Mr. Schoenfield comes at it from a different perspective. He writes about the defeat causing the very first Congressional investigation as well as the first time Executive Privilege will be used. This single disaster for the United States Army would affect it's policies towards the American Indians throughout the conclusion of the Great Indian Wars.
