The Hidatsa, called the Minnetaree by the Mandan, are a Siouan people. The scalp dance, is next to the medicine dance in importance, and is the most common of all the ceremonial dances of the Indians. The day after the return to the home encampment of a successful war party, by which scalps have been taken, a ceremony is performed by the warriors who took them. Medicine men sang and beat drums while women danced in concentric circles around the scalps. Sometimes dancers would mock the scalps or mimic hunting down the person to whom the scalp had belonged.
