Summary

Description
Satanta
English: Portrait of Chief Satanta (White Bear) Wearing Peace Medal, Leather Bag, Blanket, and Military Jacket.

This photograph must have been made early in the spring of 1867 at Fort Dodge. The chief is wearing a jacket made partly of an army officer's uniform, with the insignia of a captain. In may of that year, General Hancock gave him a major general's coat. He appears to be waring a Washington medal but there is no record that he was ever presented with one. Note that his hair is cut off just below the ear on the right side; this was a Kiowa custom.
