*** About Tipis:

*** Tipis are distinguished by their conical shape and have historically been used by numerous indigenous peoples of the Plains in North America. Their design is both practical and profound, crafted to withstand the diverse climates from scorching summers to frigid winters. Central to their structure is the tripod of poles, which supports additional poles wrapped in durable animal skins, historically bison. The tipi is emblematic not only in its physical utility but also in its spiritual significance, often decorated with symbols representing personal or tribal lore.
