Who was chief of the Lakota Sioux surrendered to US army at the battle of little bighorn?

The Sioux won the Battle of Little Bighorn, not leaving a single American of General George Armstrong Custer's 7th Cavalry alive, meaning that they did not surrender but won the battle.The battle however, made the US fight full force to avenge the death of one of there best generals, which in fact lead to the end of The Indian War and forced almost every Native Americans to move to reservations or to drop there customs and live with whites.(Sorry if I bored you)


Who led the Indians at the battle of little big horn?

Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer was the on-the-ground leader of the American horse-soldiers at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in June of 1876. Typically overlooked in this battle is the fact that Custer was officially subordinate to Brigadier General Alfred Terry, who commanded one of three columns closing in on the Native encampment from different directions. On the fateful day of the battle, Custer's decision to act on his own, rather than awaiting Terry's arrival, led to the Native victory over Custer's command.


What does the Sioux Indian name Teyet Ramar mean?

Teyet Ramar is not a name in any of the Siouan languages (and certainly not in the Lakota dialect). A "Doctor" Teyet Ramar claimed all kinds of things about himself, but his life is actually extremely vague and sketchy (as it would be if he were a fake). He claimed to be a grandson of Sitting Bull - making him a Lakota; he claimed to have the "Indian name" White Feather and claimed to be a chief, all of which is very doubtful. Teyet Ramar does not mean white feather or anything else in Lakota. It was likely his real name, while "White Feather" was a name he adopted without knowing its Lakota translation. Investigations among reservation Lakotas in South Dakota found nobody who knew of such a "chief". He has all the hallmarks of a fraudster and faker.
