Another paper completed

I have just completed a paper about my findings about GOM in the literature and within the oral history of the Ho-Chunk or Winnebagos.  It comes down to this: Was GOM a Chieftess or Ho-Chunk woman?  The ROL did not flesh out one over arching answer.  I am hesitant to say that she was both at this juncture, because I really want to keep an open mind.  Learning about her has been very enlightening and has led me to discover new concepts related to history and how it is viewed, written and preserved.  I am ready to embark on further studies to learn more about her through the roles and cultural practice of contemporary Ho-Chunk women.  I am eager to learn more about Ho-Chunk history especially since once again I will be faced with the conundrum of oral history vs. history that has been written by mainly non-natives.  Onward!
