~ 1831 - 1890
Sitting Bull (c. 1831-1890) was a Hunkpapa Lakota Sioux leader and medicine man known for his role in resisting U.S. government policies and military actions against Native American tribes. He is best remembered for his leadership during the Sioux Wars and his crucial role in the victory at the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876. Sitting Bull was also a symbol of Native American resilience and sovereignty, later touring with Buffalo Bill's Wild West show before his death.
