He's been on my mind for years
Is anyone from the Ho-Chunk tribe in this fandom!? I honestly don't have high hopes, but if you are, please I want to learn more! It's so hard to find any information about regalia and symbolism, and I am in great fear I will misunderstand something. Are there any other North American natives that can give me some pointers on this? Much love ! 😊💚

In the waterways connected to the Great Lakes, researchers uncover boats that tell the story of millennia of Indigenous history
The Madison area, known as Dejope in the Ho-Chunk language, was an Indigenous metropolis before the arrival of Europeans, says Bill Quackenbush, tribal historic preservation officer for the Ho-Chunk Nation, one of Wisconsin’s 11 federally recognized tribes. Dejope was a richly interconnected society. “There’s this misconception that we had temporary villages here and there,” Quackenbush says, “but Madison was one large living community.”

Artist Tom Jones has been persistently making art about and for the Ho-Chunk Nation for more than two decades. In the past year, the art world has begun to notice.
In work like his Strong Unrelenting Spirits series, Jones sees his role as creating visibility for his people. “That visibility is important to me. I think about the young kids, the teenagers, and I think being able to see yourself represented in art is so powerful.”

Bearheart was a member of the Ho-Chunk. Today, the estimated 12,000 Ho-Chunk are split between two federally recognized tribes, one in Nebraska and one in Wisconsin.
MADISON, Wisc.— On Thursday, Sept. 22, the Wisconsin Historical Society (WHS) recovered a 3,000-year-old dugout canoe from the bottom of a Madison lake with the assistance of two Wisconsin Tribes.
The canoe, recovered from Lake Mendota in downtown Madison, is about 14.5 feet long and carved from a single piece of white oak. According to the WHS, radiocarbon dating analysis performed on the recovered canoe places its origin at 1,000 BC — making it the oldest canoe ever discovered in the Great Lakes region by approximately 1,000 years.
It is the second canoe recovered in the last year from the same lake —last November, the WHS announced that it recovered a canoe that dated 1,200 years old. Both canoes were likely made by ancestors of the Ho-Chunk Nation.
“Finding an additional historically significant canoe in Lake Mendota is truly incredible and unlocks invaluable research and educational opportunities to explore the technological, cultural, and stylistic changes that occurred in dugout canoe design over 3,000 years,” WHS Archaeologist Dr. James Skibo said in a statement. “Since it was located within 100 yards of where the first canoe was found at the bottom of a drop-off in the lakebed, the find has prompted us to research fluctuating water levels and ancient shorelines to explore the possibility that the canoes were near what is now submerged village sites.”
Representatives from the Ho-Chunk Nation and Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa joined the WHS to recover both canoes.
Ho-Chunk (Winnebago) tribal member and Korean War casualty Sgt. John Rice was denied interment in his hometown cemetery because of his race. Pres. Truman intervened to arrange his burial at Arlington. Letter, 9/3/1951.
