Possession Markers were used by Indian Families to Identify Personal Items. Each family had a Distinctive Identifying Pattern for their Possession Markers. A Possession Marker put atop a Wood Pile would let any Passersby Know Who had Gathered It. A Possession Marker atop an Unloaded Travois was the Same as a Locked Door. Noone would bother the items, as all knew who owned them by the use of a Possession Marker.
The only time Possession Markers weren't needed was on a Hunt, when a Brave's Personally Marked Arrows Identified the Animals he had Killed. When his Wife came out to Skin the Animal, her Husband's Arrows pointed out to her which animal she was to work on.
