description:
|
Alasko Tiznado is pictured in a Medicine Man Costume next to a tipi. According to Gertrude Van Roekel, Alasko was one of the last medicine men in practice. He trained in isolation for weeks. Soon after this time the practice was neglected and many false imitators tried to carry on the practice.
