GC02 1/9th Dull Knife Northern Cheyenne £23.75

Dull Knife alongside Little Wolf, another Northern Cheyenne leader, took part in one of the most remarkable feats in the American Indian History. In retaliation for the Little Big Horn defeat, the US Army attacked Dull Knife's camp, captured the Cheyenne and deported them to the Indian Territory (Oklahoma). Faced with the threat of starvation and disease, Dull Knife (then 68) and Little Wolf undertook to lead the remnants of their tribe back to their ancestors' land in what is now Montana. Thus began an epic 1500 mile trek back North as Dull Knife's band, mostly women and children, endured the harsh cold winter as well as constant harassment by the US Army. The Indians were finally caught up, rounded up at Fort Robinson (Nebraska) and exterminated during a bloody escape attempt in the night of January 8, 1879. Dull Knife along with some others survived the massacre and joined the Crow in their Tongue River reservation where he died four years later in 1883.
