Pretty much all tribes had powerful chiefs, depending upon how you define powerful. To the Indian, powerful would mean leadership and guidance. Nearly every tribe had this kind of chief.

It is history that defines powerful now for us in terms of what chiefs we learn about. For example, we all know about Sitting Bull, Geronimo and Chief Joseph. Not many know about the thousands of other leaders such as Tecumseh and Uncas, yet their impact on their tribes and rightfully history is just as great as the well know chiefs.
