Title: Account of Crow Flies High band in Hidatsa
Identifier(s): audio:3946; APSdigrec_1814; Recording Number: 01; Program Number: 07
Description: When transferred to RDAT tape, the original recording spanned the end of one tape and the beginning of the subsequent one. As a result, there is a small gap in the recording at 14:23. Three seconds of silence were inserted to reflect the gap of missing original material, which is of underdetermined length. At the resumption of the recording after the gap the sound begins at a slightly slower speed, but gradually normalizes. The Hidatsa language is frequently referred to on the recording by one of its alternate names, "Gros Ventre." This Gros Ventre is not to be confused with the Atsina language of the same name. This program was originally recorded on the collector's original tape 72, channel 1.
