Sacagawea (/ˌsækədʒəˈwiːə/see below; May 1788– December 20, 1812; see below for other theories about her death), also Sakakawea or Sacajawea, was a Lemhi Shoshone woman who helped the Lewis and Clark Expedition achieve each of its chartered mission objectives exploring the Louisiana Purchase. With the expedition, between 1804 and 1806, she traveled thousands of miles from North Dakota to the Pacific Ocean, established cultural contacts with Native American populations, and researched natural history.
Cultural significance
Sacagawea is an important part of the Lewis and Clark legend in the American public imagination. The National American Woman Suffrage Association of the early twentieth century adopted her as a symbol of women's worth and independence, erecting several statues and plaques in her memory, and doing much to spread the story of her accomplishments.
A lewis (sometimes called a lewisson) is one of a category of lifting devices used by stonemasons to lift large stones into place with a crane, chain block, or winch. It is inserted into a specially prepared hole, or seating, in the top of a stone, directly above its centre of mass. It works by applying principles of the lever and utilises the weight of the stone to act on the long lever-arms which in turn results in a very high reaction force and friction where the short lever-arms make contact with the stone inside the hole and thereby prevents slipping.
Etymology
The name lewis may come from the Latinlevo -avi, -atum meaning to levitate or lift, but the Oxford English Dictionary Online states, "the formation and the phonology are not easily explained on this hypothesis", preferring "origin obscure", and speculating that the term may derive from a personal name. The Romans used the lewis. The specially shaped hole that is shaped to fit the device is known as a lewis hole. Lewis holes in the uppermost masonry coursings are neatly repaired with matching indented plugs after the stone has been set in place.
Lewis is a crater on the far side of the Moon. It lies along the western edge of the Montes Cordillera mountains that surround the Mare Orientale impact basin. This crater has been heavily disrupted by the formation of the basin, and it is covered by ejecta from the impact leaving only an uneven depression in the surface. The outer rim is roughly circular, and the interior is uneven.
Caroma (Caroma Dorf) is a designer, manufacturer, importer and distributor of domestic and commercial sanitaryware and bathroom products. Caroma was established in 1941 and has factories in Wetherill Park, New South Wales, and Norwood, South Australia.
Caroma is a subsidiary of GWA International Limited. Caroma introduced the world’s first two-button dual flush toilet system. The company self-distributes within Australia and abroad sells through distributors such as Sustainable Solutions International in North America and Sanlamere in the United Kingdom.
On 8 October 2014 the company announced its intention to close down manufacturing in Australia and source its vitreous china products from overseas supply partners.
Caroma Dorf Companies
The Caroma Dorf group of companies offers a range of bathroom, kitchen and laundry products from a number of brands.
Fowler - range of toilets and basins for bathrooms.
Dorf - Offers a range of products for bathrooms, kitchens and laundries.
Clark Crater is a crater in the Phaethontis quadrangle of Mars, located at 55.6°S latitude and 133.4°W longitude. It is 98.0km in diameter and was named after Alvan Clark, and the name was approved in 1973. Dunes are visible on the floor of the crater, and dust devil tracks are in the area. Both of these features can be seen in the pictures below. The thin, dark streaks are dust devil tracks.

The band was formed in Ottawa in 1999 by John Tielli who sang, played guitar and composed.
Initially named simply "Clark", the group found this problematic due to other groups being identically or similarly named. It was decided that using the name "CLARK the band" would help to alleviate the issue.
The group's roster changed throughout its existence with Tielli being the only consistent member. Primary members also included Matt Gagnon on bass and vocals, Mike Dubue on keyboards and vocals, Philip Shaw Bova on drums, Andrew McCormack on drums, Jeremy Gara on drums, Tim Kingsbury on bass and vocals, Vish Khanna on drums, Robin Buckley on drums, Dan Neill on drums, vocals and keyboards, Ryan Myshrall on bass, Jordy Walker on drums and Corwin Fox on bass and vocals.
The group disbanded in 2007. Tielli has since moved to Toronto and formed the group Metal Kites.
Sacagawea, the daughter of a Shoshone chief, was born circa 1788 in Lemhi County, Idaho. At around age 12, she was captured by an enemy tribe and sold to a French-Canadian trapper who made her his wife. In November 1804, she was invited to join the Lewis and Clark expedition as a Shoshone interpreter. After leaving the expedition, she died at Fort Manuel in what is now Kenel, South Dakota, circa 1812. #Biography

Sacagawea, The True Story - The Lemhi Shoshone Guide of the Lewis and Clark Expedition
Sacagawea (/səˌkɑːɡəˈwiːə/; also Sakakawea or Sacajawea; May c. 1788 – December 20, 1812 or April 9, 1884) was a Lemhi Shoshone woman who, at age 16, met and helped the Lewis and Clark Expedition in achieving their chartered mission objectives by exploring the Louisiana Territory.

The Truth About Sacajawea's Death
After President Thomas Jefferson made the enormous Louisiana Purchase in 1803, he needed someone to go check out what he had just bought. So, he sent explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, along with a party of other men. However, there was another person on the journey who truly did much of the hard work.
That was Sacajawea, a Shoshone woman who guided Lewis and Clark through the territory. The details of her life and death are disputed to this day, as there are multiple grave markers with her name. According to one account, she died in 1812, but another puts her death in 1884 - a pretty drastic difference. Let’s take a look at the truth about Sacajawea’s death.

In this video, the viewer learns how stones are lifted on to buildings by the use of a simple tool known as Lewis pins.
published: 29 Dec 2020
Three Pin Lewis Demonstration
A three pin lewis, also known as a dovetailed lewis, St Peter's keys, or a Wilson bolt fits into a dovetailed seating in the top of a building stone. It is made from three pieces of rectangular-section steel held together with a shackle, allowing connection to a lifting hook. The middle leg is square throughout its length, while the outer legs are thinner at the top, flaring towards the bottom. Held together, the three legs thus form a dovetail shape.
They are now illegal in the UK but were still in use when I started my career.

Lewis pins = back saver 💪#bricklayerssocialclub
Using Lewis pins on some Portland stone,
These Lewis pins were suitable to lift 500kg and the stone weight was 220kg so was more than sufficient.
When using Lewis pins ensure you drill a deep enough hole to accommodate the pin clean the hole out and be careful not to jolt or remove any of the pressure on the pins.
As always make sure you and anyone else working around you is not underneath.

Narration by Don Moffit (www.donmoffit.com)
Sacagawea, the daughter of a Shoshone chief, was born circa 1788 in Lemhi County, Idaho. At around age 12, she was captured by an enemy tribe and sold to a French-Canadian trapper who made her his wife. In November 1804, she was invited to join the Lewis and Clark expedition as a Shoshone interpreter. After leaving the expedition, she died at Fort Manuel in what is now Kenel, South Dakota, circa 1812. #Biography

"Sacagawea" was produced by Questar, Inc. who possesses all distribution rights in perpetuity. Written and Directed by Mr. Rolf Forsberg.
She was an expectant mother, but she endured every hardship these seasoned soldiers experienced. Without her, the Corps of Discovery would have failed. This program re-enacts her journey in her own words. Taken captive as a child during a raid, adopted into the tribe of her captors, and then married off, her adventures have only just begun. After Lewis & Clark journey to her village on assignment from President Jefferson, Sacagawea joins the expedition in seeking a northwest passage to the sea. Digging up edible roots and negotiating for horses, she saves the Corps of Discovery, time and time again.
With live-action cinematography, the Lewis & Clark journey is beautifully reenacted. The program carefully traces the journey from St. Louis to Fort Mandan in North Dakota, over the Rockies to the Pacific and back. This is the Lewis & Clark journey, in her words.

Sacagawea (/səˌkɑːɡəˈwiːə/; also Sakakawea or Sacajawea; May c. 1788 – December 20, 1812 or April 9, 1884) was a Lemhi Shoshone woman who, at age 16, met and helped the Lewis and Clark Expedition in achieving their chartered mission objectives by exploring the Louisiana Territory. Sacagawea traveled with the expedition thousands of miles from North Dakota to the Pacific Ocean, helping to establish cultural contacts with Native American populations and contributing to the expedition's knowledge of natural history in different regions.
Sacagawea was an important member of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. The National American Woman Suffrage Association of the early 20th century adopted her as a symbol of women's worth and independence, erecting several statues and plaques in her memory, and doing much to recount her accomplishments.

After President Thomas Jefferson made the enormous Louisiana Purchase in 1803, he needed someone to go check out what he had just bought. So, he sent explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, along with a party of other men. However, there was another person on the journey who truly did much of the hard work.
That was Sacajawea, a Shoshone woman who guided Lewis and Clark through the territory. The details of her life and death are disputed to this day, as there are multiple grave markers with her name. According to one account, she died in 1812, but another puts her death in 1884 - a pretty drastic difference. Let’s take a look at the truth about Sacajawea’s death.

Sacagawea (/ˌsækədʒəˈwiːə/see below; May 1788– December 20, 1812; see below for other theories about her death), also Sakakawea or Sacajawea, was a Lemhi Shoshone woman who helped the Lewis and Clark Expedition achieve each of its chartered mission objectives exploring the Louisiana Purchase. With the expedition, between 1804 and 1806, she traveled thousands of miles from North Dakota to the Pacific Ocean, established cultural contacts with Native American populations, and researched natural history.
Cultural significance
Sacagawea is an important part of the Lewis and Clark legend in the American public imagination. The National American Woman Suffrage Association of the early twentieth century adopted her as a symbol of women's worth and independence, erecting several statues and plaques in her memory, and doing much to spread the story of her accomplishments.
A three pin lewis, also known as a dovetailed lewis, St Peter's keys, or a Wilson bolt fits into a dovetailed seating in the top of a building stone. It is made from three pieces of rectangular-section steel held together with a shackle, allowing connection to a lifting hook. The middle leg is square throughout its length, while the outer legs are thinner at the top, flaring towards the bottom. Held together, the three legs thus form a dovetail shape.
They are now illegal in the UK but were still in use when I started my career.
Using Lewis pins on some Portland stone,
These Lewis pins were suitable to lift 500kg and the stone weight was 220kg so was more than sufficient.
When using Lewis pins ensure you drill a deep enough hole to accommodate the pin clean the hole out and be careful not to jolt or remove any of the pressure on the pins.
As always make sure you and anyone else working around you is not underneath.
