DescriptionBlack and white portrait photograph of Native American Chief Sa-tan-ta's son, So-lo-sis. It was taken at Fort Sill, Oklahoma and dates to 1858. Satanta was a Kiowa Chief. In this picture So-lo-sis is looking towards the side. His hair is down and passes his shoulders. Two twisted strands fall from his hair. He is wearing a pectoral ornament made up of two columns of long cylindrical light-colored beads. He has two hoop earrings in one ear and three identical strands of beads on the other ear. The shirt behind the pectoral ornament looks like it has a polka dot pattern on it. This photograph is mounted onto an orange board with the photographer's name, W.S. Soule, and location, Fort. Sills, printed on the back.
