Answer:

C. The Cheyenne.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Cheyenne society was stratified in four types of social organization:

  • The vestoz (a camp).
  • The manhastoz (a bunch).
  • The notxestoz (military society).
  • And the manhao (a sacred band).

Some branches, especially the manhao, had priority positions in tribal circles during ceremonies.

Decisions for the entire tribe were made by a council of forty-four leaders, and social control was carried out by the military societies.

It is clear that social status determined one's role and privileges as a member of the Cheyenne tribe.
