Traditional Narratives of the Arikara Indians, English Translations, Volume 3: Stories of Alfred MorsetteUntil the late eighteenth century the Arikaras were one of the largest and most influential Indian groups on the northern plains. For centuries they have lived along the Missouri River, first in present South Dakota, later in what is now North Dakota. Today they share the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota with the Mandans and Hidatsas. Although their postcontact history and aspects of their culture are well documented, Douglas R.

Until the late eighteenth century the Arikaras were one of the largest and most influential Indian groups on the northern plains. For centuries they have lived along the Missouri River, first in present South Dakota, later in what is now North Dakota. Today they share the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota with the Mandans and Hidatsas. Although their postcontact history and aspects of their culture are well documented, Douglas R. Parks's monumental four-volume work Traditional Narratives of the Arikara Indians represents the first comprehensive attempt to describe and record their language and literary traditions. Volumes 1 and 2 present transcriptions of 156 oral narratives in Arikara and include literal interlinear English translations. Volumes 3 and 4 contain free English translations of those narratives, making available for the first time a broad, representative group of Arikara oral traditions that will be invaluable not only to anthropologists and folklorists but to everyone interested in American Indian life and literature. The narratives cover the entire range of traditional stories found in the historical and literary tradition of the Arikara people, who classify their stories into two categories, true stories and tales. Here are myths of ancient times, legends of power bestowed, historical narratives, and narratives of mysterious incidents that affirm the existence today of supernatural power in the world, along with tales of the trickster Coyote and stories of the risque Stuwi and various other animals. In addition, there are accounts of Arikara ritualism: prayers and descriptions of how personal names are bestowed and how the Death Feast originated.

Perfect USB-C Hub for Dual Monitors, Engineering Work, and WFH
Style: 7-in-1 【2 HDMI】
This Anker 7-in-1 USB-C hub has been a great addition to my setup. I'm using it with my HP Victus gaming laptop to run dual external monitors, and it handles everything flawlessly—no lag or resolution issues, just clean and stable output. I use it daily for engineering work and working from home, and it’s made my setup far more efficient. The 100W power delivery keeps my laptop charged while powering other devices, and the 10Gbps USB ports make transferring large project files fast and hassle-free. It’s compact, well-built, and stays cool even during long work sessions. The design is smart, with well-spaced ports that help keep things organized. Best of all, the price is very affordable for what you get—especially considering the dual-monitor support and power delivery. Excellent value for a high-quality, reliable hub. If you're building a dual-monitor workstation for WFH and technical work, this hub is a solid, budget-friendly choice. UPDATE: I've been using this dock for a while now and it is so great to have if you are wfh. My wife liked it so much i ordered one for her desk setup. Thank you Anker! Joe

Terrible for dual monitor!
Style: 7-in-1 【2 HDMI】
In 2026 1080p 60 on dual monitor is atrocious and not obvious or reasonable to expect unless you very carefully look at the description images. Returned. Unacceptable and ridiculous. They need to either stop selling this or make that limit much clearer. It’s 2026, and this should be able to handle 2 1440p monitors at 60hz minimum. Really it should handle 2 4K at 60 or 2 1440p at 120hz minimum. A cheap 3 year old dock a got can handle 1440p at 90hz on two monitors. It’s ridiculous especially because it’s rated for 10 gbps. A person would reasonably think that means it’s good good for this.

Good
Style: 7-in-1 【2 HDMI】
Works great. Only complaint is that now my screens will shut on and off sometimes and I wonder if it’s the cord going out or an issue with my monitors.

Mac and Windows docking station
Style: 7-in-1 【2 HDMI】
I got a pair of these as part of a docking station setup at home. My wife and I both work from home and on the few occasions where we have overlapping meetings, I always had to move my power cord and deal with using the laptop keyboard and mouse, but now I can jump from one desk to another and have a working setup with one connection. She has a windows laptop and I’m using a Mac and it works well with both.
