The purpose of this work is to provide a detailed description of several ancient Native American artifacts and to present information that may shed light on their tribal affiliation and history. We are talking about a pair of leggings from the Cambridge University Museum of Archeology and Anthropology, a single painted legging from the Städtisches Museum Braunschweig in Germany and a painted quilled shirt from the Royal Armoury in Stockholm. All of these objects are quite unusual and little-known. The leggings from both museums were not mentioned in any study. The shirt was the subject of a brief review with a weak evidence base in the work of the American scientist Frederic H. Douglas from the Denver Art Museum, USA. The current study aims to fill these gaps.
