This is a book of French poetry written by Éléonore Sioui and published in 1985. The title “Andatha” is a wendat word meaning “where everything comes together.” The general message concerns the universal human spirit and the commonalities between people despite ethnic diversity. There are three main sections that outline the major themes of the book. The first focuses on the Great Spirit or “Grand Esprit,” the second highlights Sioui’s experiences with colonialism and how she has attempted to counter it. Finally, the last section titled “Personnellement Vôtre” or “Personally Yours’” deals with her own identity as an Indigenous woman and mother. Included in this publication are several original sketches done by the author.

Three interrelated themes dominate Muriel Wright’s correspondence in her papers at the Oklahoma Historical Society: her family ties, especially her father’s Choctaw lineage; her work in and promotion of Indian history, especially the Five Civilized Tribes; and her participation in Indian affairs, especially those of the Choctaw Nation. The long-term interaction among those themes was mutually reinforcing. Her commitment to the Wright family’s Choctaw lineage sustained her commitment to the history of Indian people and to Indian affairs in Oklahoma, while her work as a historian and her involvement in Indian affairs invigorated her family ties. To facilitate research in her papers, we have divided them into twelve categories, identified by the following keywords: biography; family; biography and Indian history; Indian history; biography and Indian affairs; Indian affairs and Indian history; Indian affairs; and the following keywords related to her publications: Chronicles of Oklahoma; Spring Place; Guide to Indian Tribes in Oklahoma; Our Oklahoma. This letter is identified by the keywords: Family, Old Boggy Depot.

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.
