Sitting Bull the Indian Sphinx and His Legend
Historians debate Sitting Bull’s true role chief of the Hunkpapa Sioux. He was not a hereditary leader or war chief yet guided his people with keen judgment and prophetic luck, notably foretelling Custer’s defeat. He escaped to Canada, then surrendered after hunger drove him back to the United States. He died at the hands of his own people, foretelling the ultimate fate of white conquest.
