An Omaha World-Herald account recounts Chief Blackbird’s tomb atop a hill in what is now Omaha city limits. It details dying orders to be buried astride his war horse, a banner staff, and a mound. Traders noted his trust, trading coercion, and later arsenic deception that boosted white traders’ influence.
