This is often a Hollywood myth. Some tribes, like the Comanche, were actually very short and wiry. Now, it all depends on parentage but in the 18th and 19th centuries, most were short.

Most native American tribes had no wedding ceremony, despite the false impression given in badly-researched and historically fake Hollywood movies.

Marriage among all the Plains tribes was seen as a purely practical and informal event based entirely on acceptance (or otherwise) by the girl's father - if the young man gave a sufficiently acceptable compensation payment in good-quality horses and the father agreed, the girl moved in with the young man and they were considered husband and wife. No ceremony, no honeymoon, no celebrations.

Divorce was equally informal; if either party gave sufficient cause, the other simply moved back to his/her parents and the marriage was over.

It is typical of white Americans that they assume that another culture's wedding practices must be the same as their own, hence the false representation given in movies.

The Comanche were nomads, living in tipis and moving from place to place on horse and travois.

They way I understand it, a rope is tied around the horse where the girth would be if it were a saddle. Then you put your legs through the rope and away you go. Please tell me your not going to attempt this. This sounds so dangerous to you and the horse. I have no problem with riding bareback, in fact it's great for balance and seat, but this 'coil' makes me think of bullriders that tie themselves to a crazy bull with a very similar strap.

Buffalo was the staple meat. They also hunted antelope, bear and deer. In lean times they hunted rabbits and other small game.
