[National Geographic Wallpaper] Indian Horse Riders (아메리카인디언)
South Dakota
Early 1900s
Edward S. Curtis
"On the bitter cold morning of December 29, 1890, at Wounded Knee Creek in South Dakota, a shot rang out during talks between Col. James Forsyth and the Sioux chief Big Foot. ... Guns and cannon blasted the Indian camp, ripping open tepees and sending women and children running through the smoke, only to be cut down by gunfire. More than 150 Sioux men, women, and children died that morning at Wounded Knee. This 'battle' marked the end of armed resistance by American Indians."
