There was an Ani-Gitlugvhita, also called Ani-Gilahi, "Long Hair Society, or War Women," in evry town.  These War Women could join a war party if they so wished.  A young war woman would go to war with the same articles of clothing as the men, front apron, moccasins, put on war paint, and carry her favorite weapon.  The only way to distinguish a War Woman at a distance was by her hair which grew full and long.
  Women who had so much power in the tribe were denied some rights.  A woman, no matter her position or titles, could be an adawehi, a War Chief, Peace Chief, or the Ugu.
