Lozen was not the only woman in the Chiricahua Apache resistance whose story has been partially recovered through the combination of oral tradition and historical scholarship.

Understanding her in the context of other Apache women who participated in the resistance enriches the picture of what the Apache community’s survival required and how it was achieved.

Dahteste has already been mentioned — the woman who served as interpreter during the negotiations of the final phase and who also participated in the resistance as a fighter.

Her role as interpreter gave her a specific visibility in the written record that most Apache women did not have: she appears in accounts of the negotiations because she was the medium through which communication happened, and her words and actions during those negotiations are partially documented.

Other women of the resistance period are less specifically documented but are preserved in the oral accounts as participants in the events of those years.
