Sitting Bull

Sitting Bull was a prominent Lakota Sioux leader and medicine man, known for his role during the American Indian Wars in the late 19th century. He is best remembered for his leadership in the resistance against U.S. government policies that threatened Native American lands and way of life. Sitting Bull played a crucial role in the victory at the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876, where General Custer was defeated. Later, he was involved in the repression of Native American tribes and spent time in captivity. Sitting Bull remains a symbol of Native American resistance and identity.
