It is wrong to think that the Oglala Lakota only ever had one chief. They have been around for many hundreds (perhaps thousands) of years, so there have been many Oglala chiefs during that time; furthermore they had many different levels of chiefs from war chiefs and band chiefs to council members.
Just a few historical Oglala chiefs at different grades and in different time periods are:
Sans Arcs, Minneconjiu, Oglala, Hunkpapa, Brule, Two Kettles, Blackfoot.
The Oglala Sioux tribe lived in the Great Plains of North America. They hunted the buffalo, which was a source of food, shelter, and clothing for these people. The people were migratory. A famous Oglala Sioux was Black Elk. Today, people from this tribe live on Pine Ridge Reservation in the Black Hills.
The Sioux nation had many battles and confrontations with the United States government. After mining was allowed on Sioux land, Sitting Bull led the people to war in protest.
