Customarily, the first order of business is to give four gifts to a clan mother and father. However, because of my proximity to home, this task must wait, but as a Crow, much thanks goes to those Clan parents that have given many prayers for my success throughout my life. Secondly, my heartfelt thanks have to go to two men who have supported me throughout my college career, always giving encouragement and constructive criticism during hard times. Without the unquestioned support from Dr. Paul Andrew Hutton, whom I view as a Father figure, and Dr. Timothy P. McCleary, a Clan Brother, I would not be at this point in my life, and so to both of you I say A‘ho. I must also acknowledge other scholars and professionals that have helped me through this process. Durwood Ball has been exceptionally helpful to me, never hesitating when I asked him for help and Margaret Connell-Szasz who sat patiently and listened to my problems on more than one occasion. It is not in our customs to speak of the ones that have passed, but in this case, I must acknowledge a great mentor, the late Ferenc Szasz, who somehow gently nudged me along in my studies, and had a positive impact on my life. The staff members of the History Department at UNM need to be given much praise because they are an outstanding staff. Yolanda Martinez, a natural leader, has never steered anyone wrong, and for me, was a blessing in disguise. I could call her and talk to her about anything, and be assured I would get a positive response. Dana and Helen, as well as the others were great supporters of my journey, along with the various Department Chairs that have helped me, including Dr. Steen. iii The Crow Nation Education Department, under the various Tribal Officials needs to be recognized as they helped with emotional and financial support. Various Little Big Horn College staff and faculty members and tribal members who have helped and supported me include: Tim Bernardis, Mardell Plainfeather, Faith Bad Bear, Frenchy Dillon, Cliff Goudelock, Tom Whiteclay, David Bad Bear, Alda Goodluck, Dr. Janine Pease, Linda Pease, Willie Stewart, Dale Old Horn, Robert (Corky) Old Horn, the late Chairman Carl Venne and current one, Cedric Black Eagle and Dr. Joseph Medicine Crow. From Rocky Mountain College: Dr. Tim Lehman, Jim Bakken, Brad Nason, Jane Van Dyke and Carolyn Lopez. My wife Luzenia, daughters Acacia, Alyssa, Aiyanna and Annika, my father Alden Sr. brothers Gary and Travis and sister Nina deserve much credit for enduring the journey with me. Many times I practiced speeches on my family, but Acacia and Alyssa had to endure most of the speeches as they are the oldest of my children, impatiently sitting and listening, while I refined my talks on them. My family is large, but they must be mentioned: Mothers, Joann, Shirley, Vina, Vicki, Una, Rosella, Victoria, Aldora Big Man; older brothers: Richard, Henry, Artie, Al, Ernie and Gerald Reed. Basbaxia: Marie, Ann, Ferol and Coleen, and fathers Ben and Tim. My In-Laws Ronald and Roseline Yellowmule, and Leon Pretty Weasle Sr. Other brothers needing mention include Garlon Williamson, Elliot Mountain Sheep, Kent Blansett, Solomon Little Owl and the late Barry Wall. Grandmothers Ruth Alden, the late Hanna Big Man and Theresa Reed; Grandfathers, the late Arthur Big Man, Ernest Holds the Enemy and Fred Alden (Junior). Finally, without the unquestioned support of my late Mother Peggy Little Light Big Man, this work would not be possible. Each moment I wanted to quit, which was iv often, I remembered the words of my mother ―Make me Proud!‖ This work is dedicated to my family, especially my mother Peggy Little Light Big Man, ―I love and Miss you.‖ v CROW HISTORY 1700 - 1950: A POLITICALAND SOCIAL BATTLE TO RETAIN THEIR CULTURE BY ALDEN BIG MAN JR. ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy History The University of New Mexico Albuquerque, New Mexico May, 2011 vi ―Crow History 1700 – 1950: A Political and Social Battle to Retain their Culture‖ By Alden Big Man Jr. B. A., Rocky Mountain College, Billings MT, 1999 M.A., University of New Mexico, 2001 Ph.D. University of New Mexico, 2011 ABSTRACT In my dissertation, ―Crow History 1700 – 1950: A Political and Social Battle to Retain their Culture,‖ I argue that the Social and Familial Kinship system utilized by the Crow is unique, and helped the Crows to preserve much of their Culture throughout the turbulent times of direct contact and assimilation. In this research I examine the movement of the Crows from eastern woodlands onto the Northern Plains, with an emphasis on the separation from the parent tribe. I argue the Crow purposely create a new and unique maternally based social and familial kinship system because of the separation from the parent tribe resulting in the formation of the modern day Crow Nation. During the period of European Contact, I explore the interaction of the Crow with the various newcomers such as the Sioux and the Europeans, and argue that the Crow lived within the world of the Plains Indians, but also adapted to new world thrust upon them by the Europeans. Because of the social and familial system, the Crows were able to survive the assaults, both physically and socially which were intended to exterminate the Crow from the Northern Plains. The areas of critical examination include vii the various treaties, the late reservation period, and events that helped to retain the Culture of the Crow such as tribal politics and gatherings such as Crow Fair. My main argument is that the Crow reacted to major events in Crow history according to their social-familial system, and as a result, made significant choices resulting in the survival of the Crow Nation. Because the Crow were able to conceptualize their world completely, they reacted accordingly which helped them to continue to remain a strong and unique nation among many nations. viii TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction ………………………………………………………………1 Chapter 1: ―Apsaalooke Annualaalio: The Coming of the Crows‖..……17 Chapter 2: ―Early Crow/White Interactions‖……...…………………….40 Chapter 3: ―Crow Political Systems: Bacheechee………………………61 Chapter 4: ―Chiefs in Transition‖………………………………………..80 Chapter 5: ―Struggle Against the Sioux‖…………………………….....93 Chapter 6: ―Critical Events of the Late Nineteenth Century…………..118 Chapter 7: ―Crow Familial Systems…………………………………...136 Bibliography…………………………………………………………...163 ix Introduction In May of 2008, President Barack Obama, then on the campaign trail for the presidency, made a visit to the Crow Reservation.1 Although there are over 500 tribes in the United States, with seven of them located in Montana, Obama had decided on visiting the Crow. Although Montana has always been a Republican state, Obama, in an attempt to persuade Indian Country to vote Democrat selected the Crow Nation as a stopping point to accomplish this goal. This caused me to ask several questions including, ―Why the Crow?‖ Was it because of the fact that the Little Big Horn Battlefield National Monument is located on the reservation or was it because the Crow had always been on friendly terms with the U.S. Government? Or maybe there was something else that made the Crow so appealing to Obama and his bid for presidency. Maybe it was this ―something‖ that had drawn not only the future president of the United States to Crow Country, but also a long list of scholars‘ eager to study this tribe. Not only do the Crow retain much of their language, but they also hold a unique social event every year that draws thousands of people from around the world known as Crow Fair. The celebration has never been intended for commercial purposes, but is actually an event that unintentionally has preserved a unique and distinct culture.2 The Crow or Apsaalooke have always been an intriguing people, and once the expansion of Euro-Americans intensified, they were sought after for their fine robes and ornaments by traders and trappers. The Grand Entrance they exhibited when they 1 Billings Gazette, May 20th, 2008. 2 Rick and Susie Graetz, Rick and Susie Graetz, This is Montana: A Geography –Geographic history of Montana, Volume 1 (Northern Rockies Publishing: Helena, MT, 2003), 17. 1 approached a village or post set them apart from other tribes.3 Many of the early explorers that encountered the Crow were greatly impressed with their stature and ability as warriors.

  • Medicine Wheels
    The central rock pile was 14 feet high with several cairns spanned out in different directions, aligning to various stars. Astraeoastronomers have determined that one cairn pointed to Capella, the ideal North sky marker hundreds of years ago. At least two cairns aligned with the solstice sunrise, while the others aligned with the rising points of bright stars that signaled the summer solstice 2000 years ago (Olsen, B, 2008). Astrological alignments of the five satellite cairns around the central mound of Moose Mountain Medicine Wheel from research by John A. Eddy Ph.D. National Geographic January 1977. MEDICINE WHEELS Medicine wheels are sacred sites where stones placed in a circle or set out around a central cairn. Researchers claim they are set up according to the stars and planets, clearly depicting that the Moose Mountain area has been an important spiritual location for millennia. 23 Establishing Cultural Connections to Archeological Artifacts Archeologists have found it difficult to establish links between artifacts and specific cultural groups. It is difficult to associate artifacts found in burial or ancient camp sites with distinct cultural practices because aboriginal livelihood and survival techniques were similar between cultures in similar ecosystem environments. Nevertheless, burial sites throughout Saskatchewan help tell the story of the first peoples and their cultures. Extensive studies of archeological evidence associated with burial sites have resulted in important conclusions with respect to the ethnicity of the people using the southeast Saskatchewan region over the last 1,000 years. In her Master Thesis, Sheila Dawson (1987) concluded that the bison culture frequently using this area was likely the Sioux/ Assiniboine people.

  • The Symbolic Role of Animals in the Plains Indian Sun Dance Elizabeth
    17 The Symbolic Role of Animals in the Plains Indian Sun Dance 1 Elizabeth Atwood Lawrence TUFTS UNIVERSITY For many tribes of Plains Indians whose bison-hunting culture flourished during the 18th and 19th centuries, the sun dance was the major communal religious ceremony. Generally held in late spring or early summer, the rite celebrates renewal-the spiritual rebirth of participants and their relatives as well as the regeneration of the living earth with all its components. The sun dance reflects relationships with nature that are characteristic of the Plains ethos, and includes symbolic representations of various animal species, particularly the eagle and the buffalo, that once played vital roles in the lives of the people and are still endowed with sacredness and special powers. The ritual, involving sacrifice and supplication to insure harmony between all living beings, continues to be practiced by many contemporary native Americans. For many tribes of Plains Indians whose buffalo-hunting culture flowered during the 18th and 19th centuries, the sun dance was the major communal religious ceremony. Although details of the event differed in various groups, certain elements were common to most tribal traditions. Generally, the annual ceremony was held in late spring or early summer when people from different bands gathered together again following the dispersal that customarily took place in winter. The sun dance, a ritual of sacrifice performed by virtually all of the High Plains peoples, has been described among the Arapaho, Arikara, Assiniboin, Bannock, Blackfeet, Blood, Cheyenne, Plains Cree, Crow, Gros Ventre, Hidatsa, Kiowa, Mandans, Ojibway, Omaha, Ponca, Sarsi, Shoshone, Sioux (Dakota), and Ute (Spier, 1921, p.

  • Kidnapped and Sold Into Marriage on the Lewis and Clark Expedition
    Fact or Fiction? Name: _________________________ Below is a passage on Sacagawea. On the following page is a chart with ten statements. Indicate whether each statement is fact or fiction. Sacagawea was born sometime around 1790. She is best known for her role in assisting the Lewis and Clark expedition. She and her husband were guides from the Great Plains to the Pacific Ocean and back. Kidnapped and Sold into Marriage Sacagawea was kidnapped from her Shoshone village by Hidatsa Indians when she was twelve years old. She was promptly sold into slavery. She was then sold to a French fur trapper by the name of Toussaint Charbonneau. The pair became married and had a son named Jean-Baptiste. On the Lewis and Clark Expedition Although there are conflicting opinions concerning how important Sacagawea was to the Lewis and Clark expedition, she did serve as the interpreter and negotiator to the Shoshone tribe - that was led by her brother Cameahwait. She helped them obtain essential supplies and horses while she carried her infant son on her back. Furthermore, Sacagawea helped identify edible plants and herbs and prevented hostile relations with other tribes simply by being with the expedition. She was even more important on the return trip because she was familiar with the areas in which the expedition was traveling. Lewis and Clark received credit for discovering hundreds of animals and plants that Sacagawea had probably seen for years. Although she received no payment for her help, her husband was rewarded with cash and land. Death and Adoption of her Children Six years after the journey, Sacagawea died after giving birth to her daughter Lisette.

  • Montana Governor Response
    OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR STATE OF MONTANA STEVE BULLOCK MIKE COONEY GOVERNOR LT. GOVERNOR August 28, 2020 The Honorable David Bernhardt Secretary of the Interior U.S. Department of the Interior 1849 C St. NW Washington, DC 20240 Dear Secretary Bernhardt: Thank you for your letter regarding the proposed National Garden of American Heroes and the request for potential locations, statues, and recommendations of Montana heroes. Montana has an abundance of public lands and spaces as well as heroes that we cherish and are worth considering as your Task Force contemplates the National Garden. I am aware that Yellowstone County, our state's largest county by population has put forward a thoughtful proposal that I hope will be given your full consideration. I would suggest that as you further develop selection criteria for the location and the heroes to include in the garden that you undertake a more robust consultation effort with county, tribal and local governments, as I am sure that other localities in the state may have an interest but may not be aware of the opp01iunity. Should Montana be chosen for the National Garden, my administration would be happy to assist with identifying further potential locations within the state, connecting you with local officials, as well as identifying any existing statues for the garden. The Big Sky State has a long, proud history dating well before statehood of men and women who have contributed greatly to both our state and nation. To provide a comprehensive list of Montanans deserving recognition would be nearly impossible. However, I have consulted with the Montana Historical Society, and they have recommended a short list, attached, of Montana heroes who would represent our state and its values well.

  • The Pain Experience of Traditional Crow Indian by Norma Kay
    The pain experience of traditional Crow Indian by Norma Kay Krumwiede A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Nursing Montana State University © Copyright by Norma Kay Krumwiede (1996) Abstract: The purpose of this qualitative research study was to explore the pain experience of the traditional Crow Indian people. An understanding of the Crow people's experience of pain is crucial in order to provide quality nursing care to members of this population. As nurse researchers gain understanding of these cultural gaps and report their findings, clinically based nurses will be better equipped to serve and meet the unique needs of the traditional Crow Indian. Ethnographic interviews were conducted with 15 traditional Crow Indians currently living on the reservation in southeastern Montana. The informants identified themselves as traditional utilizing Milligan's (1981) typology. Collection of data occurred through (a) spontaneous interviews, (b) observations, (c) written stories, (d) historical landmarks, and (e) field notes. Spradley's (1979) taxonomic analysis method was used to condense the large amount of data into a taxonomy of concepts. The taxonomy of Crow pain evolved into two indigenous categories of “Good Hurt” and “Bad Hurt”. The Crow view “good hurt” as being embedded in natural life events and ceremonies, rituals and healing. The Crow experience "bad hurt” as emanating from two sources: loss and hardship. The Crow believe that every person will experience both “good hurt” and “bad hurt” sometime during their lifetime. The Crow gain knowledge, wisdom and status as they experience, live through, and learn from painful events throughout their lifetime.
