NATIVE NAMES OF OSAGE FULL BLOODS (AS FAR AS COULD BE ASCERTAINED),
USED BY EACH GENS OF THE TRIBE
NAMES OF THE GENTES AND SUBGENTES
The following are the names of the gentes and subgentes of the two
great tribal divisions, in their fixed, sequential order, as given by
Shoⁿ´-toⁿ-ça-be, Black-dog, to Miss Alice C. Fletcher, in 1896. The
name Sho´-ḳa is the title of a subgens from which the principal gens
chooses a man or woman to act as official messenger at the performance
of a tribal rite. The official messenger also bears the title.
