History of sign language image

Sign language used by a Native American in the 1900s.

Once something on the history of sign language is up and running, this would be a good picture. It could also serve for articles on Native American people. They are using some form of sign language, but I've not been able to find out whether this is a full language or a supplement to spoken language - both have appeared among Native American communities. The man on the left is called 'Council Bear'; see information here. John Stephenson 02:39, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
