Pretty Nose was an Arapaho war chief who participated in the Battle of the Little Bighorn.[1][2][3]
Battle of the Little Bighorn
Pretty Nose fought in the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876 with a combined Cheyenne/Arapaho detachment.[4]
Photograph
A photograph taken by Laton Alton Huffman c. 1880 shows Pretty Nose with a young woman named Spotted Fawn.[5] One source from the Montana Memory Project implies that they were sisters.[6] At least one other photo of Spotted Fawn alone exists and is held by the Art Institute of Chicago.[7] She appeared in several of silver prints by Huffman, and they are now part of the collection of the Princeton Library.[upper-alpha 1]
Personal life
Pretty Nose was Arapaho, though in some sources she is referred to as Cheyenne.[9] She was identified as Arapaho on the basis of her red, black and white beaded cuffs.[1][upper-alpha 2]
Pretty Nose's descendant, Mark Soldier Wolf, became an Arapaho tribal elder who served in the US Marine Corps during the Korean War. She witnessed his return to the Wind River Indian Reservation in 1952, at the age of 101.[1]
