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:

  • Black Bird
  • Hard Heart
  • Lone Bear
  • Last Horse
  • Black Bear
  • Jack Red Cloud
  • Little Wound
  • Conquering Bear
  • Shot in the Eye
  • Red Fish (an Oglala chief around 1840)
  • American Horse
  • Crow Dog
  • Crazy Horse (a minor war chief until he was stripped of his status)
  • Young Man Afraid of His Horses
  • Big Road
  • Red Dog
  • He Dog
  • Black Twin
  • Little Hawk
  • Red Cloud
  • Blue Horse
  • Three Bears
  • Yellow Bear
  • Old Smoke
  • Surrounded By Enemy
  • Cecilia Fire Thunder
  • Theresa Two Bulls
