Why was wounded knee creek named wounded knee?

The name of Wounded Knee Creek (cankpe opi wakpala) has nothing to do with the massacre of chief Big Foot's band of Sioux that took place there in December 1890.Like most native place-names the name refers to some long-ago (sometimes entirely mythical) incident that was commemorated in the name of the particular river, stream, mountain or valley. The Crows had a story about the mythical Thunderbird living on a particular mountain in the south-east part of their lands; they called this "Where the Thunderbird Sits Down Mountain".The story of how Wounded Knee Creek got its name is lost in the mists of time, but it probably refers to a warrior being wounded there by an enemy tribe, perhaps even before contact with European explorers.
