A review of the Northern Arapaho Tribe¿s admin. of programs financed by Fed., State of Wyoming, & Tribal funds. The objective of the audit was to determine whether the Tribe was administering selected programs effectively & efficiently. The Northern Arapaho Tribe, with 5,647 enrolled members (in 1995), shares the 3,500 square-mile Wind River Reservation in west-central Wyoming with the Shoshone Tribe. The Tribe operates 22 programs, of which 10 are funded primarily by Fed. or State contracts & 12 are funded predominantly by Tribal revenue. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has oversight responsibilities for programs funded mainly by Bureau contracts & limited oversight responsibilities for certain other Tribal programs.
For more than a century, the Northern Arapaho people have lived on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming—the fourth largest reservation in the country. In The Four Hills of Life, Jeffrey D. Anderson masterfully draws together aspects of the Northern Arapahos’ world—myth, language, art, ritual, identity, and history—to offer a vivid picture of a culture that has endured and changed over time. Anderson shows that Northern Arapaho unity and identity from the nineteenth century on derive primarily from a shared system of ritual practices that transmit vital cultural knowledge. He also provides an in-depth study of the problems that Euro-American society continues to impose on reservation life and of the responses of the Northern Arapahos.
