Dakota Sioux - On the Plains, 1905

Dakota Sioux, by Edward S. Curtis, 1905.

The Sioux were some of the fiercest warriors encountered by the U.S. Military in the late 1800's. Warriors sought fame and wealth through their achievements in hunting and warfare. One such achievement was known as "counting coup," meaning they were the first to touch an enemy in battle. These coups were remembered during dances and ceremonies.
