The Mystery Of Crazy Horse’s Final Resting Place — And The Search For The Lost Burial Site
Approaching the burial mystery with honesty requires acknowledging this narrative problem.
What we know about Crazy Horse is filtered through a set of sources that have their own limitations, and the burial mystery is no exception: the accounts of the burial are filtered through the same limitations that affect everything else we know about him.
What can be said with confidence:
He died at Fort Robinson on September 5, 1877.
His family took his body and buried it.
The location was not disclosed to outsiders.
