Crazy Horse (Tȟašúŋke Witkó)
1840 CE–1877 CE · Lakota country (N. Plains)
Tasunke Witko, known as Crazy Horse, was a war leader of the Oglala Lakota on the northern Plains. He was a prominent figure in the resistance to U.S. encroachment on Lakota territory, taking a leading part in the Great Sioux War, including the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876. Committed to the traditional way of life, he surrendered in 1877 under the pressure of hunger and pursuit, and was fatally wounded soon afterward at Camp Robinson, Nebraska. He remains an enduring symbol of Lakota resistance.
