The Okipa ceremony of the Mandans by George Catlin. Plate 4. Everything Comes Back Day

Summary

[edit]
Description
Dansk: Okipa-ceremoniens tredje dag, der omhandler frigivelsen af alle dyr fra højdedraget Dog Den Butte, hvor Hoita (The Speckled Eagle) holdt dem indespærret. De otte bemalede bison-dansere på byens centerplads bærer store bisonmasker og har udsprungne pilegrene bundet fast på ryggen. Okipa-giveren læner sig ind mod den tønde-lignende helligdom ”Vandene trækker sig tilbage” med Lone Mans pibe i hånden og beder om mange bisoner tæt på byen. Yderst til venstre flygter folk fra den hvidprikkede kannibal Foolish One. De fire figurer på høje stager foran en jordhytte vedrører ikke okipa-ceremonien.
English: The third day of the ceremony was a re-enactment of the time when all the animals held prisoners in Dog Den Butte by Hoita were set free. The eight painted buffalo dancers wear green willows on the back. The Okipa Maker is at the sacred shrine ”The Retreat of the Waters” and holds the pipe of the mythological hero Lone Man. At left people are running away from the white spotted cannibal The Foolish One. The images on high poles in front of a lodge were not a part of the Okipa ceremony.
