Originally crafted out of practical necessity to protect the feet from harsh terrains and climates, this early footwear was created from the materials readily available, mainly animal hide and natural decoration. Although “moccasin" has come to be a widely used term for the form, regardless of tribe or creator, the term originated from the Algonquian Tribe’s language, and each tribe has its word, in its language, for them. Today, moccasins are a big part of a dancer’s regalia for a Powwow.
