The Sand Creek Massacre, which occurred on November 29, 1864, was primarily sparked by tensions between the U.S. government and Native American tribes in Colorado, particularly the Cheyenne and Arapaho. The massacre was carried out by a volunteer militia, known as the Colorado Territory militia, under the command of Colonel John Chivington. Chivington and his men attacked a peaceful encampment of Cheyenne and Arapaho, despite the tribes having been assured safety by U.S. officials. The attack resulted in the brutal killing of hundreds of Native Americans, including women and children.
Though there is no exact number, Colonel J.M. Chivington states in a testimony before the United States Congress that around five-six hundred Native Americans were killed. The breakdown of sex, and age of the deceased is also uncertain.
