Moving Robe Woman’s own account of her experience at Little Bighorn was recorded on at least one occasion that has been documented.

The interview provides her perspective in her own voice — filtered through translation and the specific conditions of recording — and is one of the primary sources for what historians know about her role in the battle.

Her account emphasizes her grief over her brother’s death.

It emphasizes her decision to ride into the fighting in the immediate aftermath of learning he had been killed.

It conveys the chaos and intensity of the battle from a position inside the fighting rather than observing it from a distance.
