Though there has been controversy over whether Sacagawea is tracking or cowering, in Keck’s words, she is bending forward, intent on the vast expanse of the ocean. "The guide Sacagawea is at their side, a little to the rear, so that she shall not compete too much in the composition with Lewis and Clark," he said. "By making her look down I have tried to suggest that they were on a high prominence, and she was more interested in the immediate surroundings, and not aware of what was in the minds of the explorers."

So did Keck mean that she was the practical one leading around a couple of absent-minded ninnies, or that she was incapable of high thought? Let the debate continue.
