Quapaw Elder Ardina Revard Moore (the narrator of the accompanying video documentary, “Quapaw Culture”) lives up to her Quapaw name, "Ma-shru-Ghi-Ta" – “Eagle Feather that Gets Up." Profoundly influenced by her grandfather, Victor Griffin (1873-1958), who was the last chief of the Quapaw Tribe (1929-1956-57), she grew up with him and her grandmother, Minnie Griffin, in a traditional Quapaw household. Her grandfather instilled in her a respect for education, as well as an appreciation for tribal customs and Dhegiha (O-Gah-Pah) Siouan language. The Dhegiha Siouan language family falls into several well-defined subgroups: Omaha, Ponca, Kansa, Osage, and Quapaw. The Omahas and Poncas live in what is now eastern Nebraska and speak virtually the same language. The Kansa (Kaw) tribe is in northeastern Kansas, and their language was mutually intelligible with that of the Osages, whose domain is mostly in southwestern Missouri. All the dialects of the five languages are very much alike. However, the Quapaws were the only Dhegiha speakers in the Lower Mississippi River Valley in the seventeenth century. Her life story is deeply rooted in maintaining strong family ties, connecting tribes that speak Dhegiha Sioux, and promoting education.
