        If you got 8 or more right, stop in at the Desert Trumpet’s office for a war bonnet. Five to 7 means you are a true brave. You . . . a chief . . . with 4 or
        less?  Haw!
                 Notes:  Tecumseh may have been the greatest of the Indian leaders. More than a fierce Shawnee warrior, he was a brilliant strategist and
        statesman. He believed that land did not belong to any one tribe and could not be sold. He envisioned a great Indian “confederacy” stretching from
        the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico, but it was not to be. Red Cloud was an outstanding Sioux chief who led the Sioux and Northern Cheyenne’s
        to victory in the “Powder River” war. After two years of fighting, the soldiers pulled out and a treaty was signed, guaranteeing the Powder River
        country and the sacred Black Hills to the Indians, . . . forever. Eight years later it was broken when rumors of gold in the Black Hills spread. Wovoka
        was a Paiute prophet who founded the “Ghost Dance” movement of the late 1800’s. It promised the dawn of a new age when all the whites would
        be gone and all the Indian dead would return to earth. Quanah Parker was a particularly strong and intelligent chief with a unique background. His
        mother was a white woman who had been captured by the Comanches as a child and adopted into the tribe. She later married a Comanche chief.
        He was known to the Comanches as “Quanah” (Eagle) and to the whites as Quanah Parker since that was the little girl’s surname at the time of
        her capture. When the fighting was over, Quanah became a very successful cattle rancher.
