''A Study From The Omaha Tribe: The Import Of The Totem'' is a book written by Alice C. Fletcher. The book is a comprehensive study of the Omaha tribe, a Native American tribe that once inhabited the Great Plains region of North America. The focus of the book is on the importance of the totem in the Omaha culture, which is a symbol or emblem that represents a particular clan or family. The book explores the history and significance of the totem in the Omaha tribe, including its role in social organization, religious beliefs, and daily life. It also delves into the symbolism and mythology associated with the totem, as well as its connection to other aspects of Omaha culture, such as the use of animal skins and feathers in clothing and decoration. Throughout the book, Fletcher draws on her extensive knowledge of Native American culture, as well as her years of fieldwork among the Omaha tribe. She provides detailed descriptions of Omaha customs and traditions, as well as insights into the spiritual and philosophical beliefs that underlie them. Overall, ''A Study From The Omaha Tribe: The Import Of The Totem'' is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American culture, anthropology, or the history of the Great Plains region. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the rich and complex world of the Omaha tribe, and sheds light on the enduring importance of the totem in their culture and identity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
