Uncegilas Seventh Spot: A Lakota Legend

Lyrical prose and spectacular paintings tell the dramatic story of Uncegila, an evil serpentlike creature who can be conquered only by shooting an arrow through her seventh spot. Brothers First-Twin and Blind-Twin journey to Ugly-Old-Woman, the shaman, for the magic arrows and advice that will help them make Uncegila's power their own. But that power comes at a price: constant servitude. Perhaps there is a better way for the tribe to grow strong.
