These women are demonstrating beading techniques in Oconaluftee Indian Village in Swain County, North Carolina. They are showing visitors the Peyote stitch. Oconoluftee Indian Village is a replica of an eighteenth century Cherokee village, complete with a council house and homes, constructed as they would have been 250 years ago.
