A Sioux headdress from the late 19th Century - Is it Sitting Bull's?

Through inspection of form, materials and markings, curator Arnie Brownstone has identified this artifact as a Sioux headdress from the late 19th Century. That makes it rare and valuable. It may be rarer still. Arnie has reason to believe it once belonged to the great chief Sitting Bull. But he doesn't know for sure. Museum artifacts that lack clear provenance are given ID numbers prefixed with the letter X. The headdress is such an "X File." Curator Brownstone has tried every scientific method at his disposal but cannot prove if it was owned by Sitting Bull or not. Where can one turn when rational avenues are exhausted? Museum Secrets decided to consult someone with a personal connection to Sitting Bull: his great-grandson Ernie La Pointe. Ernie believes he can discover the answer by consulting the realm of the spirits. Can he really tell us if the headdress belonged to Sitting Bull?
