About Little Big Man
Little Big Man, or Charging Bear, was an Oglala Lakota, or Oglala Sioux, who was a warrior who fought under, and was distant cousin to, Crazy Horse ("His-Horse-Is-Crazy"). He opposed the 1868 Treaty of Fort Laramie and fought against efforts by the United States to take control of the ancestral Sioux lands in the Black Hills area of the Dakota Territory. He also fought at the Battle of Little Big Horn in the Montana Territory in 1876. Later he decided to cooperate with the U.S. and may have been involved in the death of his old ally and rival, Crazy Horse, at Fort Robinson in Nebraska in 1877.
