Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anthropological Papers of the American Museum of Natural History, 1924: Volumes 21 and 22 Since in culture the Hidatsa differ from the Crow far more than the affinity of the two languages and hence presumable recency of their separa tion would lead us to expect, it seems natural to refer such divergence as exists to Mandan influence on the Hidatsa. This interpretation would lead to thoroughly satisfactory results if we could be sure that recently collected Mandan data indicating cultural identity with the Hidatsa reflect ancient Mandan conditions. Unfortunately, we are frequently without the means of checking our information on account of the inadequacy of the early accounts.
