Heyókȟa

The Lakota medicine men were much more than shamans and healers. They were also the humorous men who brought culture and joy to their tribe. These men were also named Heyókȟa. They preferred to do everything backwards, including riding horses backwards, or wearing their clothes inside out.
The purpose of these men was to make the people of the tribe question things, knowing that things were done one way, but could be done another. They worked to remove hate and fears from their people.
