Considered a place of reflection by the National Park Service, this site memorializes the US Army’s 7th Cavalry and the Lakota and Cheyenne tribes.
The battle of Little Bighorn was one of the last armed efforts to preserve the indigenous way of life.

It symbolizes the clash of the buffalo/horse culture of the Lakota and Cheyenne and the industrial/agricultural culture of the United States.
On June 25 and 26 in 1876, Lt. Col. George A. Custer and 263 soldiers of the U.S. Army died fighting several thousand Lakota and Cheyenne warriors.

The battle was a short-lived victory for the tribes, as Custer’s death became a rallying cry to strengthen efforts to force indigenous peoples onto reservations.
