Ask an average person whether he can draw an Indian tipi [or teepee] and he will say "Why! Of course!" There is no "of course!" about an Indian tipi unless you are an Indian learned in the old ways or, like the anthropologists Reginald and Gladys Aubin you have spent years studying tipis all over North America.
