Sitting Bull
(c. 1831-1890)

Sitting Bull was a Hunkpapa Lakota leader and a respected holy man. Before the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876, he had a vision during a Sun Dance of soldiers falling into camp, and his people took it as a sign of victory. The Lakota and their allies did win that battle.

Afterward the army chased his people, and he led them into Canada for a few years. He later came back and was held at a reservation. He briefly toured with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show in 1885. He was killed in 1890 when police came to arrest him.
