Isern Chair John K. Cox Kelly Sassi Clifford Canku Approved: 10/21/2019 Mark Harvey Date Department Chair ABSTRACT The Očhéthi Šakówiŋ (Seven Council Fires; “Great Sioux Nation”) occupied an area from the woodlands to the Great Plains. The landscape and the wind influenced their language and culture in a way that suggests a long occupation. Major landmarks like Ȟesápa (Black Hills), Matȟó Thípila (Bear Lodge; “Devils Tower”), Pahá Makȟáska (White Earth Butte; White Butte, ND), and Oǧúǧa Owápi (Images Burned Into The Stone; Jeffers Petroglyphs, MN) were woven into the cultural identity of the Očhéthi Šakówiŋ. The pictographic record, traditional song, and oral tradition recall events like first contact with the horse at the Čhaŋsáŋsaŋ Ožáte (White Birch Fork), or the James River-Missouri River confluence in C.E. 1692. The historical pictographic record, oral tradition, and occupation will be examined in this paper to support the idea that Očhéthi Šakówiŋ have a cultural occupation of the Great Plains that long predates the European record.

  • The 1874 Black Hills Expedition Diary of Ered W. Power
    Copyright © 1998 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. "Distance Lends Enchantment to the View": The 1874 Black Hills Expedition Diary of Ered W. Power edited bv Thomas R. Buecker On 2 July 1874, a large military expedition of nearly one thousand soldiers, Indian scouts, teamsters, and attached civilians left Fort Abraham- Lincoln, near Bis- marck, Dakota Territory. During the next sixty days, this impressive cavalcade led by Lieutenant Colonel George A. Custer successfully explored the Black Hills, a mysterious region that had long been the subject of rumor and spec- ulation. Despite the large number of people who marched with the 1874 Black Hills Expedition, remarkably few left personal recordings. While the official reporis and accounts of the newspaper correspondents accompanying the expedition have been widely available to researchers, few reminis- cences and diaries are known to survive. One rare exam- ple is the heretofore unpublished diary of correspondefit Fred W. Power. A welcome addition to the scant literature of the 1874 Expedition, Power's diary offers significant insights into this monumental event of Northern Great Plains history.^ 1.

Their efforts to change the Indian way of life were unreasonable by today’s standards, seeking to force them onto agricultural reservations. The tumultuous story is told here along with a comparison of the various treaties.

  • DAKOTA RESOURCES | the Sitting Bull Surrender Census, Standing
    Copyright © 2010 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. EPHRIAM D. DICKSON III Dakota Resources The Sitting Bull Surrender Census, Standing Rock Agency, 1881 During 1880 and 1881, Sitting Bull, his family, and members of the bands associated with him returned to the United States after a long exile in Canada, where they had taken refuge following the Great Sioux War of 1876–1877. Surrendering at Forts Buford and Keogh, they were trans- ported down the Missouri River to the Standing Rock Agency near their former homelands. There, a census taker visited the lodge of the famous Hunkpapa leader. Speaking fluent Lakota, the enumerator re- corded the name of each woman and child in Sitting Bull’s family, as well as their age, sex, and relationship to the household head. The cen- sus taker even noted how many dogs the family owned (they had two) and the approximate number of buffalo and deer they had successfully hunted in the past year (he reported 150 deer and 300 buffalo). For Sitting Bull and other Lakota leaders, the census enumeration was a new experience, one of many strange and often intrusive bureaucratic processes the Hunkpapas endured as they settled into reservation life. For officials in the Office of Indian Affairs, the census was an important administrative document, one that over time became a powerful tool in their ongoing effort to transform American Indian identities and communities. Today, early reservation records such as censuses, annuity rolls, and issue lists provide historians a rare glimpse of American Indian com- munities as they existed on the threshold of tremendous change.
