The Year the Stars Fell: Lakota Winter Counts at the Smithsonian

The widespread Lakota, or Western Sioux, recorded many different events in their winter counts, but all include 'the year the stars fell', the spectacular Leonid meteor shower of 1833-34. This work offers information on the important collection of Lakota winter counts at the Smithsonian, a core resource for the study of Lakota history and culture.
