Product Description

White buffalo patch is machine embroidered by MindysEmbroidery.ArtFire.com

White Buffalo are considered to be sacred signs in several Native American religions, and thus have great spiritual importance in those cultures and are visited for prayer and other religious ceremonies.

Spiritually, the buffalo was a source of great strength to the plains tribes like the Cheyenne, Dakota, Lakota, Nakota, Arapaho, Crow, Plains Cree, Pawnee, Hidatsu, Mandan, Arikara, and Kiowa. For the Sioux Nation, the buffalo was known as Tatanka. Five centuries ago, a beautiful maiden dressed in white buckskin decorated with dark porcupine quills approached the Sans Arc band of the Sioux Nation carrying a bundle wrapped in buffalo skin. White Buffalo Calf Woman brought many important teachings and introduced the sacred pipe to the people. When she left, with a promise to return, she turned into a white buffalo and disappeared.
