"LITTLE HORSE"

Little is written regarding Little Horse, Oglala, but it is believed he participated in the battle of Little Bighorn, fighting along side Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull.

The Oglala Sioux roamed the plains between the north and south forks of Platte river and west of the Black Hills. They occupied the country extending northeast from Fort Laramie, at the mouth of Laramie River on North Platte River, including the Black Hills and the sources of Bad River and reaching to the fork of the Cheyenne, and ranged as far west as the head of Grand River. This piece was inspired by photos taken by Herman Heyn in 1898.
