Moving Robe Woman (Tȟašína Máni) — The Hunkpapa Lakota Woman Who Rode Into The Battle Of Little Bighorn After Learning Her Brother Had Been Killed
This kind of careful distinction is especially important when the subject is violence — when the claim involves a specific act of killing or post-battle treatment.
The standard for historical certainty should be higher, and the honest account should reflect the state of the evidence rather than choosing between confirmation and denial.
THE SECOND DAY
The fighting did not end on June 25.
After Custer’s five companies were destroyed on the northern end of the battlefield, the Lakota and Cheyenne warriors turned their attention back to Reno’s men on the bluff.
The Reno-Benteen position — where the survivors of Reno’s charge had been joined by Benteen’s battalion — was besieged through the afternoon of June 25 and into June 26.
