STRONGWIND LAKOTA SIOUX

Picture












KAREN IVEY ORIGINAL PASTEL FRAMED 20 x 24


The Sioux Nation were made up of seven different tribes, each tribe had a head Chief.  In serious warfare the tribes would band together, and a man of recognised leadership would head the war party.  As at the Battle of Little Big Horn in 1876.  The five tribes of the Teton Sioux were aided by a large party of Cheyenne.  The resulting battle between the 7th Cavalry under General George A. Custer and the Lakota Nation took place at Greasy Grass, Montana on the  
15th of June.  The Sioux Nation won a victory over General Custer and his 7th Cavalry.......extracts taken from The Great Sioux Nation & North American Indian : Volume 3.

Red Armed Panther, or Red Sleeve, was a Northern Cheyenne Scout at Fort Keogh during the late 1870s. He was brought into the Chiefs Council of Forty-four during the summer of 1864. He actively participated during Chief Little Wolf’s trail back to the homeland, which is now the Northern Cheyenne Reservation located in the south eastern part of Montana. He put his life on the line to save his comrade, Black Horse, during a horse stealing raid. He had a large family growing up, with six sisters and a brother. He had two children, Shell Woman and “Man Bear,” known as John Red Sleeve. The exact date of his death is uncertain, but he died in his home of electrical shock in the Muddy Cluster district on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation.
