It was a victory because they defeated Custer and the force that he was personally leading, inflicting significant casualties on the force. Custer himself was killed along with almost 300 of his soldiers, while the Indians suffered relatively light casualties. They won the battle, no question about it.
But it was a defeat in the long term because news of the defeat led the US Army to alter its strategy, as well as use more powerful forces to defeat the tribes. Less than a year after the battle, the Sioux tribes were largely defeated, their lands annexed by the US, and the tribes forced onto reservations.
The Battle of the Little Bighorn was both a victory and a defeat for the Native tribes involved. Undeniably, it was a victory, given the destruction of that portion of the 7th Cavalry that had been led into a trap by Lt. Colonel Custer. It was, at the same time, a defeat, as it gave away their position and intentions to a larger number of enemy troops in the vicinity without securing any decisive tactical advantage. They sprang the trap too soon.

The Battle of the Little Bighorn (aka The Battle of the Greasy Grass) was one of the few victories of the Native Americans being relocated from their lands in the US. On June 25-26, 1876, they defeated the US 7th Cavalry under George Armstrong Custer, which included his death in what became known as "Custer's Last Stand."Battle of the Little Bighom
They had their victories here and there. The Fetterman Massacre comes to mind. However, the one everyone knows is the Greasy Grass, aka Little Big Horn, July 25, 1876.
Ulysses S. Grant was the President of the United States during the Battle of Little Big Horn in June of 1876. The Battle of Little Big Horn took place in Montana between the U.S. Calvary and Native Americans that included the Sioux. The battle was won by the Native Americans.

Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse are the two Chiefs.
Uylesses S. Grant was the American president when the battle of little bighorn took place. Part of the reason there was conflicts with settlers and Native Americans was the fact that Grant had ordered Native Americans to settle in designated reservations.
It was a victory because the Native Americans won a big battle and killed General Custer. This proved that if they fought together that could win battles against the Americans. But afterwards this battle was a defeat because when the Americans heard when the Indians had done they got really angry, (and a bit scared I suspect), and for revenge they started killing lots of peaceful Native Americans on reservations, as well as trying harder to round up 'wild' Indians. A famous example of this happened at Wounded Knee. This destroyed the last of the Native American spirit.
Little Bighorn is not a "who" , but a place in WY where George Armstrong Custer fought 2,000 Native Americans in the last battle of the war between the Union army and the Native Americans in 1876. This was the "last stand" of the tribes and within a year they were defeated.
