Sitting Bull, his Indian name was originally Tatanka Lyotake, was born in the Grand River region in 1831. He had some amazing names, but the ones he was known by were either Sitting Bull, or Hunkesi, which means 'slow', which in most cases suited him because he was never in a hurry, but he was really careful. He was the member of the Sioux tribe and was in his first war party against a tribe named the Crow at age 14.
Sitting Bull was known because of his fearlessness in war. Sometime, the Indian police arrested Sitting Bull as a precaution on December 15, 1890. Sitting Bull's warriors were upset and went to get Sitting Bull back. When they went to do so, Sitting Bull was killed. He was buried at Fort Yates. His ruins were moved to Mobridge, South Dakota in 1953.
