Sitting Bull, a prominent Sioux leader, practiced polygamy, which was a common cultural practice among many Native American tribes. Having multiple wives was often seen as a symbol of prestige, wealth, and power, as well as a way to form alliances between different families or tribes. Additionally, polygamy allowed for the continuation of lineage and the growth of the population within the tribe.

Sitting bull made the decision to migrate to the little big horn river because of the untimely appearance of a obnoxious drifter who claimed his name was chief smoking grass of the slapahoe tribe. He stayed with sitting bull for several months, he slept on their couch and sold most of their peyote, yet he managed to keep a friendly appeal. So naturally the peaceful sitting bull did not want to directly confront chief smoking grass about his extended stay as instead they decided to just leave in the middle of the night and relocate to the little big horn river.
From his father he was named, Tȟatȟaŋka Iyotȟaŋka, translated as "Sitting Bull". Lakota language for. "described an intractable buffalo bull, sitting on its haunches, resolute in the face of danger."
