Ammon Pubigee, a prominent Northwestern Shoshone leader, ward clerk, and Sunday School superintendent in the Washakie community, was recognized by his family and community as a powerful practitioner of 'bo'ha' (or 'bo'hagunt'). This term refers to a traditional Shoshone spiritual power or gift, which in the context of the Washakie Latter-day Saint community, was understood as a manifestation of spiritual authority and divine influence.
