He was overwhelmed by the amount of the Sioux, and his company was mainly miles away when they tried to circle them. The protester Indians joined the good Sioux, and they together had over 3,000 warriors, compared to George Custer's 200 men. Because of that, obviously, every single man that was with Custer was killed.

Who led the Indians at the battle of little big horn?

Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer was the on-the-ground leader of the American horse-soldiers at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in June of 1876. Typically overlooked in this battle is the fact that Custer was officially subordinate to Brigadier General Alfred Terry, who commanded one of three columns closing in on the Native encampment from different directions. On the fateful day of the battle, Custer's decision to act on his own, rather than awaiting Terry's arrival, led to the Native victory over Custer's command.

Who defeated the Custer Indians at Little Big Horn?

The collective efforts of the Sioux, Cheyenne and Arapaho encamped on the bank of the Rosebud River at the Little Bighorn can all claim a victory. George Armstrong Custer, despite being outnumbered was to blame for his own defeat. His tactics, lack of prior planning, division of forces, and overconfidence were certain to guarantee defeat. He had claimed about 130 warriors as his victims at the Washita when most of his targets were women and children. Two years later he defeated himself and much of the 7th Cavalry.
