dc.descriptionIn the region now known as Northern California and southern Oregon, women's caps have long been highly valued not only for ceremony, but also for everyday use. Alfred ""Bud"" Lane, Jr., of the Siletz tribe explains the significance of the cap to his community: ""The Siletz xee-tr'at, one of the most instantly recognizable ceremonial items that our women wear, is a very strong representation of our people. It represents to us our covenant with the Creator from which the new generations come. In the Feather Dance, our women and girls represent the promise of the Creator that, if we obey His laws, he will send us the new generations.""
