***About Tipis:

*** Commonly associated with the nomadic tribes of the Plains Indians in North America, tipis (also spelled teepees or tepees) are conical tents traditionally made from animal skins and wooden poles. Known for their durability, warmth, and portability, tipis were ingeniously designed to set up and break down quickly to suit a nomadic lifestyle. The structure of a tipi is smartly engineered to be stable against the winds and effective at smoke ventilation during heating, making it an enduring symbol of Indigenous ingenuity.
