Mandan Indian Village Exhibit Near Fort Abraham Lincoln


The Mandan Indian Village at Fort Abraham Lincoln was fascinating and well worth the several hours we spent there.

The smaller lodges were must as interesting as the larger one, most likely used for tribal ceremonies.

And within the smaller structures, there were a number of things of interest: various things from their culture, including rattles, drums, and even a few children's games.

The pictures below show the things that interested us. There were a number of things they let tourists handle and look at during the guided tour.
Ann and Jack took a tour of the residence of Custer. There were many interesting things in this museum, well worth the bother of finding it and spending several hours there. It's a museum I would like to see again, and I know Jack enjoyed it very much.

At 5:00 p.m., we had to be on our way in order to get to the river boat. We made it with a bit of time to spare.

It was an end of a perfect day.
