As George Catlin described, “A stranger in the Mandan village is first struck with different shades of complexion, and various colours of hair which he sees in a crowd about him; and is at once almost disposed to exclaim that ‘these are not Indians.’ … The Mandans are a pleasing and friendly race of people, of whom it is proverbial amongst the Traders and all who ever have known them, that their treatment of white men in their country has been friendly and kind ever since their first acquaintance with them – they have ever met and received them, on the prairie or in their villages, with hospitality and honour.”
