AMOS BAD HEART BUFFALO. Battle of Little Bighorn, Montana, USA, 25-26 June 1876 (c1900). Artist: Amos Bad Heart Buffalo

AMOS BAD HEART BUFFALO. Battle of Little Bighorn, Montana, USA, 25-26 June 1876 (c1900). Retreat of US 7th Cavalry battalions under Major Marcus Reno (1834-1889). The Little Bighorn was a crushing defeat inflicted on the US 7th Cavalry by Sioux and Cheyenne warriors commanded by Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse. Reno's detachment was forced to retreat after encountering a much larger force, but the troops commanded by General George Armstrong Custer were surrounded and killed to the last man in the action known as 'Custer's Last Stand'. The Native American victory only temporarily delayed the encroachment of white settlers onto their lands however.
