Geronimo (Goyaałé)
1829 CE–1909 CE · Chiricahua Apache country
Goyaale, known as Geronimo, was a leader of the Bedonkohe band of the Chiricahua Apache in the borderlands of present-day Arizona, New Mexico, and northern Mexico. Renowned for his determination and skill, he led small groups in resisting both Mexican and U.S. forces over many years. His surrender in 1886 marked the end of the last major armed Apache resistance, after which he and his people were held as prisoners of war for decades. He died in 1909 while still in federal custody in Oklahoma.
