The Wyoming Medicine
Wheel
In the Bighorn Mountains
.
"One of the prototypical medicine wheels is in
the Bighorn National Forest in Big Horn County,
Wyoming. This 75-foot-diameter (23 m) wheel
has 28 spokes, and is part of a vast set of old
Native American sites that document 7,000
years of their history in that area."
28 spokes equals the number of days in the
monthly lunar cycle.
