Original – Native American woman war chief Pretty Nose, who participated in the Battle of Little Big Horn in 1876. Photographed in 1879, she is wearing cloth dress with woven cloth belt and buffalo robe, as well as earrings, bracelet, rings and necklace.
Reason
Good quality for a 1870s photo. An interesting tidbit: while she fought against United States, her grandson served in the US military and she witnessed his return from Korean War, aged 101.
