Abstract
The author gathered data on Crow ceremonial life during visits to the Crow of southeastern Montana from 1907 to 1916. This final article based on that fieldwork contains native accounts of a series of minor Crow ceremonies: the Horse dance, the Medicine Pipe (Village Indian Ritual and Crow Ritual), Cooked Meat singing, the Bear Song dance, the Chaste Women's dance, the Not-small Old Woman dance, the Greasy Grass dance, and the Badger dance.
