It’s obvious that this amazing person defied gender roles. And proved the need to do so. This human was exceptionally gifted both as a warrior and a leader. Did not succumb to gender norms, though did what needed to be done to protect and also, i understand, nurture the tribe.

Not patriotic, but still a heck of a story.

Hmmm. Thinking about this.
So someone referred to as Brown Weasel Woman you now refer to her (two centuries later) as a them a gender fluid "by all accounts".
What accounts are you referring to? And why would assume this?
