    I just learned of this term in my college history class. Indians gave gifts as a return of a favor or to a good friend, or for various other reasons. They would ask for the gift back if the other person had acted in a dishonorable manner or had done something to disgrace the tribe. It was expected of the giver to ask for the gift back; otherwise, it would seem that he or she approved of the disgraceful act.
