Fw: regalia inquiry

[Mark J Awakuni-Swetland]

Aloha All,
I received this inquiry regarding the Winnebago name for the silver 
"rings" sewn onto dresses, etc.
Not being a Hochunk specialist, I thought I would forward it to the list.
Thanks
Mark

regalia






Hello, Mark,
 
I wrote you earlier about your beadwork.  Now i'm wondering if you can 
identify something for me.  Winnebagos use silver rings in their regalia, 
sewn on their dresses.  When i ask, they just tell me they're silver 
rings. Do you know what that ring is called?
