Hi
The name of my city,Medicine Hat, comes from a Native story. There was a huge battle between tribes. The one side looked like it was going to lose and the Medicine Man ran droppoing his headress on the run. This was a very bad omen and the battle was lost. The area was then called Saamis in the native tongue but the anglos called it "Medicine Hat". They were going to change it but Ruypard Kipling visited once and said not to as it was so unique. Our area has a lot of natural gas. Kipling said this area had all Hell for the basement and Medicine Hat the exit.
