Giving Voice to Crow Country: The Crow Place Name Project
The Crow Place Names project at Little Big Horn College documents and preserves traditional place names, including the stories connected to those names. Stories about places often relate to important historical incidents and to behavioral values. Crow places are named more often for the physical characteristics of the land than after specific people, as is the case in American culture, and names commonly reflect the Crow relationship to the land as an equal. LBHC maintains a bilingual website of maps and associated place names, the url for which is provided. Vol. XII, Issue 2, Winter 2000
