Rosebud Creek battle - 1876-2025

 Salvete Omnes,



Rosebud Creek battle -  June 17, 1876 - in 2021 I posted some native, Cheyenne, Lakota etc, warriors' accounts of the battle, where general Crook aided by Washakie and Plenty Coups was defeated by Crazy Horse, the blotahunka of the Oglala  Lakota.



Today I want to commemorate the battle and its participants with the prints from American media of the period.





the Lakota-Cheyenne allies would fight another grand battle at the Greasy Gras/ Little Big Horn river in 8  days. 
Here a presentation by the Rosebud Battlefield State Historical Park - via archive world library.
