Red Hawk of the Oglala Tribe
Photographer Edward S. Curtis took this photo of Red Hawk, a member of the Oglala tribe, riding on horseback in 1905. This photo was later labeled “An Oasis in the Badlands.” But as far as the Oglala Sioux were concerned, they were part of a bigger group of tribes known as the Lakota, which were considered one of the biggest tribes in North America up until the 19th century when the alliance between the sects fell apart.
