Domestic Architecture at the Comanche Village on Medicine Creek - Indian Territory, Winter 1872-73: Anthropological interest in Plains Indian architecture has long focused on the periodic ritual gatherings in which social structure
was symbolized in the formal arrangement of the village, the camp circle. Features of domestic architecture have received little attention. William S. Soule's series of photographs of a Comanche village on Medicine Creek, Indian Territory, in the winter of 1872 - 1873, shows a number of lodges, with associated features, and allows a two-dimensional examination of the spatial arrangement and domestic architecture of a Comanche village in the late pre-reservation period.
